Should the institution’s name be registered in the affiliation field even if the author is no longer affiliated with it?
29 de April de 2024No. The institution’s name should only be registered in the affiliation field if the author is still affiliated with it or if the work was conducted during the period of affiliation. It is up to the author to include this information in the document.
If the document only provides titling information, such as “PhD,” “Master’s,” or “licensed by,” the affiliation field should be filled in with “s.af” (without affiliation).
The institution’s name should only be recorded if there are indications of current affiliation, such as “PhD candidate” or “Master’s candidate,” which indicate that the author is still affiliated with the institution.
