Abstract
SOBRIDO PRIETO, María; GUTIERREZ COUTO, Uxía and GONZALEZ GUITIAN, Carlos. From the standardization of scientific signatures to identification with digital signatures. Index Enferm [online]. 2016, vol.25, n.1-2, pp.56-59. ISSN 1699-5988.
Author's name usually appears in different ways in articles or databases. The neglect of the authors, the diversity of editorial practices and errors in databases are some of the causes. Therefore it is difficult to rectrieve the entire scientific production of an author. This makes it difficult to know the career and is a common cause of miscalculations productivity, visibility and impact. Faced with this problem in recent years have emerged various initiatives to resolve the variability scientific firm, and we have structured by 3 points; normalized scientific signature Author researcher profiles and Digital Identifier. Among all these proposals, in 2009 was born ORCID (Open Researcher and Contribution). The identifier has gained in popularity in order to ensure not only the clear distinction of researchers, but also as an effective method of linking activities in different information systems.
