title: The ethics of writing and publishing.
abstract: Many decisions are made during the process of writing for publication. However, nurse authors often fail to recognize the ethical implications inherent in many of their choices. To help nurse faculty and administrators address four of the more common problem areas, the author discusses the ethics of multiple authorship, conflict of interest, fraud, and salami publishing.
