Interdisciplinary collaboration is widely recognized and considered essential for optimizing the development of knowledge and practice. However, interdisciplinarity is commonly accepted as an unquestioned good; rarely examined as both a source of benefit as well as difficulty for nursing and other disciplines. The aim of this article is to critically examine the opportunities and challenges that interdisciplinarity can provide for research in nursing and other disciplines. Based on a North American perspective, I describe the emergence of uni-disciplinary nursing research and the knowledge exchanges that occurred between nursing and other disciplines. I discuss the rise of interdisciplinary research, outline several examples of nursing participation in interdisciplinarity, and highlight the prominent benefits and difficulties associated with interdisciplinary research. I argue that authentic collaboration is required to conduct meaningful interdisciplinary research and describe how this can be promoted.
跨学科合作已得到广泛认可，并被视为优化知识发展与实践的关键要素。然而，跨学科性通常被视作一种无可置疑的优势，鲜少被视作护理及其他学科受益与困难的来源加以审视。本文旨在批判性地探讨跨学科性为护理及其他学科研究带来的机遇与挑战。基于北美视角，我将描述单一学科护理研究的兴起以及护理与其他学科间发生的知识交流。我会讨论跨学科研究的兴起，概述护理学科参与跨学科研究的若干实例，并强调跨学科研究的显著益处与困难。我认为开展有意义的跨学科研究需要真诚的合作，并阐述如何推动这种合作。
