Rycroft-Malone and colleagues' editorial on research co-production highlights the potential of a co-production mode of research to narrow the gap between knowledge production and use. This commentary critiques implicit assumptions within the argument and challenges the view that traditional (Mode 1) science bears the primary responsibility for delayed implementation and questions the inherent superiority of co-production. It also highlights the importance of political and policy considerations in considering research uptake. "Mode 3" knowledge production (integrating Modes 1 and 2 discovery) offers a potentially more advanced framework that recognizes systems and organizational perspectives. A deeper, multi-layered exploration of the influence of socio-political and policy contexts is needed to understand the full potential of co-production on knowledge utilization.
赖克罗夫特-马龙及其同事关于研究共同生产的社论强调了研究共同生产模式在缩小知识生产与应用之间差距方面的潜力。这篇评论批判了该论点中的隐含假设，对传统（模式1）科学应对实施延迟承担主要责任的观点提出质疑，并对共同生产的固有优越性提出疑问。它还强调了政治和政策考量在研究成果应用方面的重要性。“模式3”知识生产（整合模式1和模式2的发现）提供了一个可能更先进的框架，该框架认识到系统和组织层面的视角。需要对社会政治和政策背景的影响进行更深入、多层次的探索，以了解共同生产在知识利用方面的全部潜力。
