“…Las aproximaciones cualitativas al estudio de la colaboración científica resultan de utilidad no solo para complementar sino para profundizar en los resultados obtenidos a través de estudios cuantitativos, siendo una aproximación especialmente útil para identificar pautas de comportamiento y abordar la comprensión del fenómeno estudiado en su contexto (Borrego Huerta, 1999). Amalia Creus y Agustí Canals a través del trabajo "Desarrollo profesional e intercambio de conocimiento en los grandes experimentos científicos" nos ofrecen un ejemplo de una aproximación cualitativa que combina diferentes metodologías para analizar la colaboración científica: el análisis de los documentos generados a nivel institucional, observaciones etnográficas y entrevistas en profundidad.…”

Resumen: La construcción del conocimiento es un proceso cooperativo que se ha intensificado considerablemente a lo largo de las últimas décadas, involucrando cualquier iniciativa de investigación a un número cada vez mayor de investigadores, instituciones, disciplinas y países. El presente estudio realiza una revisión bibliográfica de la literatura sobre colaboración científica. Se identifican los trabajos pioneros del área, el tipo de estudio y las variables analizadas. Se comenta la aproximación "clásica", basada en la obtención de indicadores bibliométricos, que ha adquirido una nueva dimensión analítica con el Análisis de Redes Sociales así como con las aproximaciones cuantitativas y cualitativas que tratan de indagar en las motivaciones y en las dinámicas del trabajo cooperativo. El estudio de la colaboración científica se ha abordado con metodologías y desde ópticas disciplinares muy diversas, según se puso de manifiesto en el Congreso "La colaboración científica: una aproximación multidisciplinar", celebrado en la Universitat de València en noviembre de 2013, que reunió a los principales expertos españoles en el tema. El presente ejemplar monográfico de Revista Española de Documentación Científica recoge una selección de diez trabajos presentados en el citado evento. Finalmente, se reflexiona sobre los principales retos que debe abordar la investigación en relación con la colaboración científica.Palabras clave: Colaboración científica; trabajo cooperativo; Ciencia y Tecnología; investigadores; investigación en colaboración. Scientific collaboration: main research lines and future challengesAbstract: The construction of knowledge is a collaborative process that has seen a dramatic growth over recent decades, since almost all research activities now involve increasing numbers of researchers, institutions, disciplines and countries. The present study provides a bibliographic review of the literature on research collaboration and identifies pioneering work on the topic, the types of studies undertaken and the variables analyzed. Several approaches are discussed: the "classical" approach, based on bibliometric indicators, which has taken on a new dimension with Social Network Analysis; and quantitative and qualitative approaches, which attempt to investigate the motivations and dynamics of collaborative work. The study of scientific collaboration has been undertaken using a variety of methodologies from different disciplinary perspectives. This was made evident at the Congress "Scientific collaboration: a multidisciplinary approach" held at University of Valencia in November 2013, which brought together leading experts on the subject from around Spain. This special issue of Revista Española de Documentación Científica contains ten selected papers presented at that event. We conclude this introductory paper by examining the main challenges that research into scientific collaboration should explore.

“…Moreover, we support this research with ethnographic observations that provide us with information from the local contexts in which this work is deployed. We defend that knowing the “how” of scientific collaboration we can provide keys to delve into the “why” and the “how much” (Borrego, 1999). The study sample focuses on high-performance research group, with research projects funded internationally by the European Research Council (ERC).…”

PurposeIn this article, the authors explore the emotional dimension of the strategies that researchers carry out to foster collaboration within research groups in science.Design/methodology/approachThe authors have carried out fieldwork based on semi-structured interviews with members of high-performance research groups, supported by the analysis of ethnographic observations in the local work contexts of several of these groups.FindingsAs a result, the authors start from the representations of the principal investigators interviewed about collaboration, as a dynamic between the individuals involved and the group, to describe two forms of leadership strategies: ego-centered or group. Hence, the authors highlight that the emotional work of IPs consists of combining both strategies by activating and deactivating affection, warmth and spontaneity in interactions. The authors conclude by reviewing the contributions and some potential lines of study.Research limitations/implicationsThe main contributions and conclusions must be regarded considering several limitations of our work. First, the authors have focused on high-performance groups, so it would be expected that the research groups that do not have the support of European Research Council (ERC) do not present the observed dynamics. Concerning the analysis, the authors have focused on the link between situational (personal interaction) and organizational scales. Although the authors have attended social factors that imply the structure and changes of the professional sector of science (Whitley, 2000, 2014), future publications will allow the authors to delve into relationships on a broader scale, associating collaboration patterns and discursive positions. The authors will focus on (1) roles and social profiles and (2) features of scientific culture and its recent configuration.Practical implicationsThe authors affirm that the emotional field is key to understanding how groups and individuals respond to these profound changes. In their work, scientific professionals do not only act based on rational and instrumental criteria but also driven by habits, affective networks and inertia of their organizational cultures. In this paper, the authors provide theoretical and practical keys to understand the complexity that collaboration creates within research groups as a contradictory reality that consists of a constant movement of individuals and the group.Social implicationsAs many of the interviewees expressed, there are no adequate spaces to learn and reflect on leadership and collaboration in science. The authors are science workers who are responsible for imagining and deciding how the authors want their research groups to function. Institutions must ensure the means so that this task can be carried out. Hopefully, this article will contribute to this irrevocable project.Originality/valueThe authors’ aim is to understand how well-known groups operate in their field, with a high level of resources and productivity, in order to identify and promote cutting-edge strategies in different scientific branches. Moreover, the authors want to recognize the importance of institutional infrastructures. For this reason, giving them a place in the framework of management studies allows to submit this issue to public debate for a wide audience of social scientists. Moreover, this permits to inquire about cross-disciplinary subjects, such as social and organizational psychology, sociology of work, studies about science and management studies.
