Collaborative Research: The Alphabetic Braille and Contracted Braille Study as an Example of Collaborative Research

Abstract

This article examines the Alphabetic Braille Contracted Braille Study in relation to the dimensions of collaborative research: extent, intensity, substance, heterogeneity, velocity, formality, and productivity. It also discusses the dimensions of financing research and researchers’ attitudes. The overall consensus is that the study would not have been as comprehensive without collaboration.
