The aim of this discursive paper was to explore the development of co-production and service user involvement in UK university-based mental health research and to offer practical recommendations for practitioners co-producing research with service users and survivors, informed by an overview of the key literature on co-production in mental health and from a critical reflection on applied research through the medium of a case study. The paper is co-written by a mental health nurse academic and a service user/survivor researcher academic. The authors argue that the implications of co-production for mental health research remain underexplored, but that both the practitioner and service user/survivor researcher experience and perspective of co-production in research can provide practical reflections to inform developing research practice. The theories and values of emancipatory research can provide a framework from which both practitioners and service users can work together on a research project, in a way that requires reflection on process and power dynamics. The authors conclude that whilst co-produced investigations can offer unique opportunities for advancing emancipatory and applied research in mental health, practitioner researchers need to be more radical in their consideration of power in the research process.
本文旨在探讨共同生产和服务用户参与英国大学心理健康研究的发展，并通过对心理健康共同生产关键文献的概述以及通过案例研究对应用研究进行批判性反思，为与服务用户和幸存者共同开展研究的从业者提供实用建议。本文由一名心理健康护士学者和一名服务用户/幸存者研究学者共同撰写。作者认为，共同生产对心理健康研究的影响仍未得到充分探索，但共同生产在研究中的从业者和服务用户/幸存者的体验和观点可以为发展研究实践提供实用的反思。解放研究的理论和价值观可以提供一个框架，使从业者和服务用户能够共同参与研究项目，同时需要对过程和权力动态进行反思。作者得出结论，虽然共同产生的调查可以为推进心理健康领域的解放性和应用研究提供独特的机会，但从业者研究人员需要更加激进地考虑研究过程中的权力问题。
