A central component of participatory research is the collaborative, nonhierarchical work of co-researchers and academic researchers. The development of a research question has a special importance as it entails different meanings for those involved. For academic researchers the research question is focussed on gaining knowledge and is developed at an early stage of the project. For co-researchers the development and the finding of answers to a question are less important than the possibility of jointly changing their social reality.
This article investigates how these different interests influence the collaborative development of a research question and which factors can enhance the process.
Based on experiences from the participatory action research project "Longing in later life" and critical reflections, this article unpacks the different roles of the participants in the project and the process of co-creation.
A joint development of a research question is time consuming and depends on the extent of shared experiences and the degree of marginalization among the group of co-researchers.
参与式研究的一个核心要素是共同研究者与学术研究者之间协作、非等级制的工作。研究问题的提出具有特殊重要性，因为它对相关人员有着不同的意义。对学术研究者而言，研究问题聚焦于获取知识，且在项目早期阶段就已形成。对共同研究者来说，问题的提出及答案的探寻不如共同改变其社会现实的可能性重要。
本文探讨这些不同的利益如何影响研究问题的协作式提出，以及哪些因素能够促进这一过程。
基于参与式行动研究项目“晚年的渴望”的经验及批判性反思，本文剖析了项目参与者的不同角色以及共同创造的过程。
共同提出研究问题耗时且取决于共同研究者群体中共享经验的程度和边缘化程度。
