“…Each author each had experienced research engagement within their own disciplines before embarking on this study and had previously experienced being part of collaborative research processes. For instance, Diana Amundsen had collaborated and co-authored on a research ethics project related to the problematics of accessing research sites and participants (see Amundsen, Msoroka, & Findsen, 2017); Nadine Ballam had been involved in a multi-country international research project spanning four years pertaining to the pedagogies of educational transitions (see Ballam, Peters, & Paki, 2017); and Marg Cosgriff had been a research collaborator in the 'Everybody counts? Reimagining health and physical education in the primary school' study, a Teaching Learning Research Initiative-funded project (see Petrie, Cosgriff, & Burrows, 2013;Petrie, Burrows, & Cosgriff, 2014).…”

The occurrence of research collaboration among multiple researchers is becoming more widespread within the academic research community. Research collaboration endeavours offer many benefits yet are not without challenges. This think piece draws on our lived experiences as educators and university researchers to evaluate a research collaboration journey. The process prompted us to deeply question and critically reflect on what enables and supports research collaboration in academic research partnerships. We undertook a critical reflective-in-action study collecting and analysing data for a period of 15 months. We uncovered three elements we propose are integral to supporting effective research collaboration practice and outcomes in academia. These are Acknowledging the Affective, Becoming Bolder, and Cultivating Creativity in what we term, the ‘ABCs of collaboration in academia.
