“…8,10,26,[44][45][46][47] From 2005 onward, an increasing number of randomized control trials have been performed. [48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55] Some have focused on schools with children as the target learners [50][51][52] or included a multifaceted approach with education as one component. 50,53,54 The results generally have been positive, showing increases in knowledge, fewer symptoms and fewer absences from school.…”

“…For example, in some situations it has been productive to involve students or fellows in specific roles in already existing collaborative teams such as in helping to implement an intervention protocol or in taking the lead on a manuscript based on an existing data set. At a more ambitious level, some advanced graduate students have facilitated the design and implementation of studies by adding their own ideas and energies (Walders et al, 2006). In such situations, a trainee joined an already formed interdisciplinary team that included the mentor.…”

Objectives Collaborative research with pediatric colleagues has become increasingly important in the professional agenda of pediatric psychology, and there is a continuing need to articulate the challenges of such research. To address this need, this article describes types of collaborative research, reasons for collaboration, collaborative process, challenges, and strategies to facilitate collaborative research. Methods Experiences and lessons learned over the course of a career in collaborative research are described. Results Challenges in collaborative research can be overcome by effective strategies of engagement and communication. Useful methods of training researchers in collaborative research include modeling and supervised mentored experiences in research initiated by trainees. Conclusion Data are needed to identify the characteristics of successful collaborative research, strategies to promote effective research, and methods of training and career development.Key words collaborative research; interdisciplinary research; research training. Reflections on Collaborative Research With Pediatric ColleaguesCollaborative research with pediatricians has long been a hallmark of the field of pediatric psychology (Kagan, 1965;Routh, 1982;Wright, 1967) and a topic of continuing interest (Armstrong, 2009;Armstrong & Drotar, 2000;Drotar, 1989Drotar, , 1993Drotar, , 1995. In recent years, the importance of collaborative research that is developed by interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary teams has become increasingly important in science in general (Bennett & Gadlin, 2012; Buscemi, Stegitz, & Spring, 2012;Wuchty, Jones, & Uzzi, 2007), as well as in the field of pediatric psychology, given expanded knowledge and the growth of large collaborative studies (Armstrong, 2009;Armstrong & Reaman, 2005). The increased emphasis on interdisciplinary team science at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has also heightened the need to understand the process of successful research collaboration (Croyle, 2012;Hall et al., 2012; National Institutes of Health, 2008). Moreover, current trends such as the increased emphasis on collaborative training and service provision, especially in primary care, that are anticipated in the Affordable Care Act (Rozensky & Janicke, 2012) and the growing importance of developing interprofessional competencies in a range of activities (Interprofessional Education Collaborative Expert Panel, 2011) enhance professional focus on collaboration.These trends coupled with the complexity of collaborative research underscore the continuing need to identify and articulate the nature and process of collaborative research, key challenges, potential strategies to manage them, and implications for research in the field of pediatric psychology, including the training of researchers. The purpose of this article is to address this need by describing Context of My Experience in Collaborative ResearchResearch collaboration is defined by content, context, and role. For this reason, it will be helpful for readers to u...
