Description - Collaboration in Psychological Science: Behind the Scenes by Eugene Borgida

This remarkable collection of essays gives students and other researchers a first-hand look at how collaborative scientific research is done. The 21 contributors are leading psychological and social scientists with extensive experience working as members of a research team. Each author offers a distinctive perspective on the collaborative research process—its pros and cons, challenges and benefits, practical implications and ethical dilemmas. 
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.
