Service users are increasingly participating in health research. Although collaborative research is assumed to give users a sense of psychological ownership, little is known about the specific psychosocial processes through which ownership develops and is displayed. The present study yields insight into a process in which service users, researchers and a website designer collaborated to design a website.
The aim of this study was to explore how participants developed and displayed feelings of ownership during a collaborative process to design a website.
A case study design was adopted by which audio recordings were subjected to thematic analysis and interpreted by drawing on the concept of psychological ownership.
A sense of psychological ownership of the website design process emerged in two distinct and overlapping phases. In the first phase, 'sense of ownership during the early design phase', only researchers and the website designer displayed a sense of ownership, which was facilitated by the research context preceding the collaborative workshops. In the second phase, 'sense of ownership during the collaborative design phase', service users gradually started to develop parallel feelings of ownership that were facilitated by workshop design activities. These activities enabled service users to increasingly control the process, to invest themselves in the process and to gain intimate knowledge of the process and its outcome. Service users' sense of ownership was displayed in their statements about the website and its elements.
Participants engaged in codesign processes may develop a sense of psychological ownership at different speeds because of contextual factors. It is important to take this into account as it may complicate the formation of egalitarian work groups.

服务使用者越来越多地参与健康研究。虽然协作研究被认为使用户产生心理所有权的感觉，但对于发展和展示所有权的具体心理社会过程知之甚少。本研究深入了解了服务使用者、研究人员和网站设计师合作设计网站的过程。
本研究旨在探讨参与者在设计网站的协作过程中如何发展和展示所有权感。
采用案例研究设计，对音频记录进行主题分析，并通过借鉴心理所有权的概念进行解释。
在两个不同且重叠的阶段出现了对网站设计过程的心理所有权感。在第一阶段，“早期设计阶段的所有权感”中，只有研究人员和网站设计师表现出所有权感，这是由协作研讨会之前的研究背景促成的。在第二阶段，“协作设计阶段的所有权感”中，服务使用者逐渐开始发展出平行的所有权感，这是由研讨会设计活动促成的。这些活动使服务使用者能够越来越多地控制过程，将自己投入到过程中，并深入了解过程及其结果。服务使用者的所有权感体现在他们对网站及其元素的陈述中。
由于背景因素，参与共同设计过程的参与者可能会以不同的速度产生心理所有权感。重要的是要考虑到这一点，因为这可能会使平等的工作团队的形成变得复杂。
