Factors associated with disciplinary and interdisciplinary research collaboration

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigate how scientific knowledge in interdisciplinary collaborative teams is learned, shared and integrated in scientists' minds and in their daily interpersonal communications using participant observation, semi-structured interview and cognitive mapping.

TL;DR: This work introduces the concept of investigation as a means to formalize knowledge seeking efforts involving collaborative human action and model the investigation concept as a set of seven elements common to all knowledge-seeking efforts.

TL;DR: Using multiple indicators of interdisciplinarity (variety, balance, and disparity), the authors examined 1613 references cited in articles published between 1976 and 2018 in six highly regarded accounting research journals.

TL;DR: This paper used case data from an interdisciplinary research project on vertical farming to identify four core registers of valuing the "goodness" of research and tensions between the following registers: money, sustainability, scientific value and academic identity.

TL;DR: The authors argued that the ways in which knowledge is produced are undergoing fundamental changes at the end of the twentieth century and that these changes mark a distinct shift into a new mode of knowledge production which is replacing or reforming established institutions, disciplines, practices and policies.

TL;DR: The authors presents laboratory science in a deliberately skeptical way: as an anthropological approach to the culture of the scientist, drawing on recent work in literary criticism, the authors study how the social world of the laboratory produces papers and other "texts,"' and how the scientific vision of reality becomes that set of statements considered, for the time being, too expensive to change.

TL;DR: In this article, a general class of regression models for ordinal data is developed and discussed, which utilize the ordinal nature of the data by describing various modes of stochastic ordering and this eliminates the need for assigning scores or otherwise assuming cardinality instead of ordinality.

TL;DR: Slaughter and Leslie as discussed by the authors examine the current state of academic careers and institutions, with a particular focus on public research universities in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia.
