Reflections on Quality in Academic Writing
As scholars, we engage with quality as writers, readers, and reviewers of academic texts whether we expressly articulate what we mean by quality or not. In this essay, I will discuss aspects of quality in academic writing as both a process and product. First, we invariably employ some notion of what constitutes quality when we evaluate academic writing in peer review and assessment processes and when we make use of others’ writing in our own writ…
On the Interplay Between Boundary Work and Organizational Context
There is a growing interest in deepening our understanding of variations in professionals’ boundary work. How healthcare professionals work to change or maintain power and practice domains is embedded in their efforts to collaborate across organizational and professional boundaries. Drawing on a comparative interview study from the Danish eldercare sector, we explore how nurses and care workers in two different organizational contexts articulate …
Seeing the Whole Together Through Relational Mapping: A Method for Engaging in Complex Systems Change
Complex global challenges cut across organizational and sectoral boundaries, increasing calls for holistic responses. Seeing the whole across diverse stakeholders is challenging for participants in complex systems, yet doing so is essential for engaging effectively in systems change. A promising new method known as relational mapping, based on relational coordination theory, has been used to facilitate complex systems change. Here, we propose tha…
Theorising Support for Interdisciplinary Early-Career Researchers Using Communicative Genre and 'Rules of the Game
Qualitative social scientists working in medical faculties have to meet multiple expectations. On the one hand, they are expected to comply with the philosophical and theoretical expectations of the social sciences. On the other hand, they may also be expected to produce publications which align with biomedical definitions and framings of quality. As interdisciplinary scholars, they must handle (at least) two sets of journal editors, peer reviewe…
Cultivating Creativity in Methodology and Research: In Praise of Detours
Borrowing brainpower - sharing insecurities. Lessons learned from a doctoral peer writing group
Academic writing is a vital, yet complex skill that must be developed within a doctoral training process. In addition, becoming an academic researcher is a journey of changing sense of self and identity. Through analysis of a group session, we show how the feedback of peers addresses questions of structure and writing style along with wider issues of researcher identity. Thus, peer learning is demonstrated as a process of simultaneously building …
Collaboration in Healthcare Through Boundary Work and Boundary Objects
This article contributes to our understanding of how boundary work is practiced in healthcare settings. Previous studies have shown how boundaries are constantly changing, multiple, and co-existing, and can also be relatively stable cognitive and social distinctions between individuals and groups. In highly specialized, knowledge-intensive organizations such as healthcare organizations, organizational, professional, and disciplinary boundaries ma…
An experimental approach to the study of mob behavior
In view of the difficulties in experimental study of crowd behavior, as exemplified in the lynching mob, recourse was had to a modification of experimental procedure closely approximating mob incitation (assemblage, episode, leader), with provision made for recording at the height of excitement the reactions and motivating context of the individuals present. Under the stress of incitation, 12% indicated an inclination to join the mob forthwith, 2…
