Authors' names not exporting into Zotero from Ovid Embase

erinwatson

Hi,

I've noticed that author names are not coming over properly from Ovid Embase. Here is a reference list entry that I created using Zotero Vancouver Style:

1. M T, P N, K V, M.-K L, A T, A.-M P. Leisure Reading (But Not Any Kind) and Reading Comprehension Support Each Other-A Longitudinal Study Across Grades 1 and 9. Child development. 1467th–8624th ed. 2020 May;91(3).

And here is how the "Cite" function in Zotero cited this in AMA style:

Torppa M., Niemi P., Vasalampi K., Lerkkanen M.-K., Tolvanen A., Poikkeus A.-M. Leisure Reading (But Not Any Kind) and Reading Comprehension Support Each Other-A Longitudinal Study Across Grades 1 and 9. Child Dev 2020;91(3):876-900. doi:10.1111/cdev.13241

So, as best I can tell, the author's surname and first name are flipped. And then because they are flipped, the last name is being abbreviated.

Could you look into this?

Thanks.

How exactly are you importing?

Yes, sorry I should have said that I used Zotero Connector for Chrome.

I tried exporting an RIS file for the same citation to Zotero and then cited in Word using Vancouver, and this is my reference list entry now:

Torppa M., Niemi P., Vasalampi K., Lerkkanen M.-K., Tolvanen A., Poikkeus A.-M. Leisure Reading (But Not Any Kind) and Reading Comprehension Support Each Other-A Longitudinal Study Across Grades 1 and 9. Child Dev. 2020;91(3):876–900.

So it seems to be a problem with the connector.

Could someone have a look at this connector? Thanks!
