Dear Colleagues,
This is a research request for confidential first-hand information on forced gift signatures.
If you have been following the recent threads, you will be aware of my interest in the problem of people who have been pushed or successfully forced to add co-author signatures to an article by people who are not actually co-authors.
I’m thinking of writing an article on the subject, and I need some real stories.
If you will share your experiences with me on a confidential basis, it would be most helpful.
Any information I receive will be kept in strict confidence, and any details that I use will be rendered anonymous and untraceable.
If you have had this kind of experience or if you have first-hand knowledge of something like this happening to a friend or colleague, I’d like to hear from you.
Please write to me in confidence at my email

Several people have written to me since the thread began. It seems to me a serious problem — to describe the problem that people face, it helps to have real evidence. Even a few cases are better than none. I don’t have the time to develop a full quantitative survey, but it is possible to gather and share some qualitative stories on a confidential and anonymous basis.
Best regards,
Ken
