With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers have been faced with challenges in maintaining interdisciplinary research collaborations. The purpose of this article is to apply and expand a previously introduced model to sustaining new interdisciplinary research collaborations: Forging Alliances in Interdisciplinary Rehabilitation Research (FAIRR). FAIRR is a logic model that can be used as a guide to create interdisciplinary rehabilitation research teams. In this article, the authors propose expanding FAIRR by including strategies for sustaining interdisciplinary rehabilitation research collaborations: modifying inputs (resources needed to assemble a team and to conduct research activities), shifting activities (steps taken to move the interdisciplinary collaboration forward), and examining what impacts the fit between inputs and activities. Two examples are used to highlight the application of the FAIRR model to interdisciplinary collaborations during COVID-19.
随着新冠疫情的爆发,研究人员在维持跨学科研究合作方面面临挑战。本文旨在应用并扩展之前引入的一个模型,以维持新的跨学科研究合作:跨学科康复研究中的联盟构建(FAIRR)。FAIRR是一个逻辑模型,可作为创建跨学科康复研究团队的指南。在本文中,作者提议通过纳入维持跨学科康复研究合作的策略来扩展FAIRR:修改投入(组建团队和开展研究活动所需的资源)、调整活动(推动跨学科合作向前发展所采取的步骤),以及考察哪些因素影响投入与活动之间的契合度。文中使用了两个例子来突出FAIRR模型在新冠疫情期间跨学科合作中的应用。
