Collaboration in Psychological Science: Behind the Scenes
Description
Each essay focuses on a set of guiding questions:
- What motivated the collaboration?
- What about the collaboration made the research work more effective (or less?)
- Does the substantive domain in which the collaboration occurs shape the nature of the collaboration?
- How have technological advances changed collaboration?
- Are there particular issues that arise for students collaborating with faculty members, or faculty members collaborating with students?
- These essays offer useful insights to Psychology students learning about research methods at undergraduate or postgraduate level.
