The purpose of this study is to systematically analyze the causes of free-riding in team collaborative learning situations and explore practical solutions for various causes of free-riding. Data on the experiences of 270 students from universities in the Seoul metropolitan area who have undergone collaborative classes were collected regarding their experiences of free-riding. The data were reviewed through expert Focus Group Interviews (FGIs) to discuss and derive final solutions. The results indicated that it is important for instructors to detect free-riders early on and provide appropriate scaffolding tailored to the attitudes and characteristics of identified free-riders. In the proposed solutions, emphasis was placed not only on improving positive perceptions of collaboration during and after the collaboration process but also on maintaining team morale. Additionally, the study aimed to establish solutions through scaffolding based on factors related to early detection of potential causes and prevention of free-riding. It is hoped that the results of this study will serve as a helpful resource for instructors leading team collaborative learning in dealing with free-riders.

Healthcare professionals and pregnant and post-natal women's perceptions of interprofessional collaboration in a maternity care facility: A qualitative study from Botswana

ObjectiveTo explore the perceptions of healthcare professionals and pregnant and post-natal women regarding interprofessional collaboration in a maternity care setting in Botswana, a low-to-middle-income country in Sub-Sahara Africa. DesignA descriptive qualitative design using in-depth interviews with forty participants, including healthcare professionals and women in maternity wards. Data were transcribed and thematically analysed. SettingAntenatal, delivery and post-natal maternity wards in a referral hospital that provides basic and specialist care in Botswana. ParticipantsWe interviewed 13 pregnant and post-natal women and 27 healthcare professionals in the maternity care wards. FindingsParticipants perceived several interrelated factors that influenced the delivery of interprofessional collaborative care. Interpersonal factors such as poor communication, disrespectful behaviours and inadequate teamwork practices prevented interprofessional collaboration. Other barriers to collaboration included lack of understanding of each other's roles and responsibilities, ineffective coordination of resources, hierarchical power struggles and poor collaborative leadership. Key conclusionsEffective interprofessional collaboration remains elusive in this maternity care setting. Healthcare systems in low-to-middle-income countries may benefit from interventions for healthcare professionals to learn and practice interprofessional collaborative care.

Nurses’ Perception of Interprofessional Collaboration in Hospitals in the Maldives

Introduction: The concept of interprofessional collaboration (IPC) is widely used in healthcare organizations, where patients are treated. However, there is no definite terminology that can explain the term IPC. The aim of this research is to understand nurses’ perception of IPC in Hospitals in the Maldives. Methods: A cross -sectional survey was conducted among 292 nurses from two hospitals followed by Focus Group Discussions with 5 nurses from each hospital. The instrument tool used for the survey was “conceptualization of interdisciplinary collaboration” by D’Amour which was adapted for this study with 9 items and an expert validated open ended questionnaire. Results: The findings from the study shows positive responses for IPC1-Disciplinary groups do exchange information 58.65% (n=171), IPC2- Share clinical decision making 60.3% (n=176), IPC3-Patient data are collectively reviewed 62.7% (n=183), IPC4- Supports each other in the multidisciplinary team 59.2% (n=173), IPC5 highest rate of positive response was for “IPC 6- conflict resolution which was 63.7% (n=186), IPC7- common care plan 63.0% (n=184), IPC8- Data collected at one point is shared with the team 57.5% (n=168) and the lowest was for “IPC 9- level of collaboration -56.8% (n=166) respectively. Conclusion: This study revealed that importance should be given to promoting a culture of interprofessional collaboration in the hospitals of Maldives. Therefore, there is a need to address this and implement IPC with respect to all professionals, by mitigating the hierarchical differences in the healthcare system. Thus, it is crucial to educate all HCPs with regard to sustaining IPC.

Attitudes Toward Interprofessional Health Care Teams in a Regional Cancer Institute: A Cross-Sectional Survey Study

ObjectivesOncology is a rapidly changing clinical setting. Research has shown improved patient outcomes and staff satisfaction following interprofessional collaborative education, but there has been limited research on perceptions of interprofessional collaboration among oncology health care professionals. The aims of this study were to: 1) assess attitudes of health care professionals toward interprofessional teams in oncology care, and 2) assess for differences in attitudes across various demographic and workplace groups. Data SourcesThe research design was an electronic cross-sectional survey. The main instrument utilized was the Attitudes Toward Interprofessional Health Care Teams (ATIHCT) survey. A total of 187 oncology health care professionals from a regional New England cancer institute completed the survey. The ATIHCT mean score was high (M = 4.07, SD = 0.51). Analysis revealed statistically significant differences in mean score among participant age groups (P = .03). Significant differences (P = .01) were also noted between different professional groups and their time constraints sub-scale score on the ATIHCT scale. A higher mean score occurred in participants who had a current certification (M = 4.13, SD = 0.50) compared to those without (M = 4.05, SD = 0.46). ConclusionHigh overall scores in attitudes toward health care teams suggest that cancer care settings are primed for interprofessional care model implementation. Future studies should examine strategies to improve attitudes among specific groups. Implications for Nursing PracticeNurses are in a position to lead interprofessional teamwork in the clinical setting. Further research is necessary to examine best collaborative models in health care to support interprofessional teamwork.

I want to be seen as myself: needs and perspectives of persons with dementia concerning collaboration and a possible future move to the nursing home in palliative dementia care

Introduction: Interprofessional collaboration (IPC) within and during movements between care settings is crucial for optimal palliative dementia care. The objective of this study was to explore the experiences of persons with dementia regarding collaboration with and between healthcare professionals (HCPs) and their perceptions of a possible future move to the nursing home (NH) in palliative dementia care. Method: We conducted a cross-sectional qualitative study and performed semi-structured interviews with a purposive sample of persons with dementia living at home (N = 18). Data analysis involved content analysis. Results: Our study demonstrated that even though most persons with dementia find it difficult to perceive the collaboration amongst HCPs, they could describe their perceived continuity of care (Theme 1. My perception of collaboration among HCPs). Their core needs in collaboration with HCPs were receiving information, support from informal caregivers, personal attention and tailored care (Theme 2. My needs in IPC). Regarding a possible future move to the NH, persons with dementia cope with their current decline, future decline and a possible future move to the NH (Theme 3. My coping strategies for a possible future move to the NH). They also prefer to choose the NH, and continue social life and activities in their future NH (Theme 4. My preferences when a NH becomes my possible future home). Conclusion: Persons with dementia are collaborative partners who could express their needs and preferences, if they are willing and able to communicate, in the collaboration with HCPs and a possible future move to the NH.

“It Is Not About Us and Them”: Nursing Students’ Perception of Interdisciplinary Collaboration in Mental Health Clinical Studies

Through interdisciplinary collaboration, a synthesis can be made together across subject boundaries that basically separate the subjects. This means that in addition to their own expertise, the professions can create a new understanding, new attitudes and new knowledge. In other words, a shared additional knowledge. The purpose of this study was to explore and describe nursing students’ experiences of interdisciplinary collaboration in clinical studies in mental health services. A qualitative, explorative study was performed based on three focus group interviews. A qualitative content analysis was conducted. The analysis resulted in the categories: ‘Community’—The students experienced the interaction and the communication in different ways. ‘Learning’—The students could gain both knowledge and understanding. In conclusion when the interdisciplinary collaboration was optimal, the students experienced it as enriching both in terms of interaction, communication, learning and understanding. Interdisciplinary collaboration can give students knowledge of cultural forms of expression so that they can better meet patients’ needs. The students also gain an increased understanding related to care. Students can get good learning opportunities when different professions are taught together.

Aspects of Dynamics in Dialogue Collaboration

Collaborative dialogue is an important category of human interaction and is widely studied in the literature, especially in fields that attempt to develop new technologies that enable wider varieties of collaborative dialogues. The ingredients of collaboration in dialogue are less thoroughly addressed. We describe the theoretical framework within which we are working and our approach to the construction of a theory of what may make dialogue collaborative. We study a multimodal dialogue corpus (MULTISIMO) testing for positive and negative correlations between dialogue content features and interaction features that one might reasonably imagine are related to assessments of degrees of collaboration. The duration before the second speaker’s first turn and degree of imbalance in the number of words produced by speakers negatively correlate with collaboration assessments (that is, imbalances of content and a delay in the first speaker yielding the floor lead to diminished perceptions of collaboration), while a monotonically increasing duration of focus in successive dialogue sections (rather than overall dialogue duration) correlates positively (that is, when participants are deemed to be extending the duration of the task rather than increasing speed with experience, this is perceived as collaborative).

Student Perceptions of Collaboration and Scientific Communication Skills in Physics

This study analyzes students initial perceptions of their collaboration and scientific communication skills. This method of research was descriptive research with a qualitative and quantitative approach. The subjects of this study were students of class XI MIPA.1 MAN 1 Siak in the 2022/2023 academic year. The data collection technique used in this study was a questionnaire via Google Forms. Data on students collaboration and scientific communication skills perceptions were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results of data analysis for indicators of collaboration skills are 2.13 in the low category, and scientific communication skills indicators were 1.92 in the low category. From the results of the data analysis, it can be concluded that students initial perceptions of their collaboration and scientific communication skills are in a low category. It is because of students not being used to learning in groups in class due to the online learning process for approximately two years in a row. The lack of training in student collaboration skills results in low scientific communication skills. That is because the essential subjects taught in the emergency curriculum during the pandemic barely touched the real of scientific communication skills.

Collaborative Behavior or Collusion? Investigating Unpermitted Collaboration on Homework Among College Students

Although postsecondary students’ rate of academic dishonesty has been consistent over the last 50 years, the most significant increase in cheating has been in unpermitted collaboration. Given the changing learning environments necessitated by COVID-19, this study investigates how 12 college students at a highly selective Research 1 institution view collaboration, specifically unpermitted collaboration on homework, and how their attitudes are shaped by faculty guidance or lack thereof. We conclude by discussing how both student and faculty perceptions of collaboration may be affected by the impact of COVID-19 and how academic integrity may be influenced by this impact.

Purchase and Collection Motivations of Co-Branded Limited-Edition Collectibles: The case of the Jollibee Funko Pop

This exploratory case study seeks to understand the purchase and collection motivations of an international co-branded limited-edition collectible. It also explores consumers’ perceptions of the brand collaboration between Philippine-based Jollibee and United States-based Funko. This study finds that consumers are motivated to purchase and collect products based on their willingness to identify with the brand, which stems from personal values, self-concept, and nostalgia. While most studies on co-branding use simulated alliances, this study provides a real example of an international branding collaboration, thereby providing a nuanced understanding of co-branding spillover effects and how a consumer’s willingness to identify with a brand motivates their purchase and collection decisions.

Perceptions of interprofessional collaboration at the intersection of child welfare and child and adolescent psychiatry in Germany

In Germany (and other countries) a significant proportion of children and young people in contact with the child welfare system do not receive adequate mental health care. Fragmented service delivery has been partially attributed to a lack of interprofessional collaboration between the child welfare system and providers of child mental health services. Child and adolescent psychiatric (CAP) clinics provide the majority of child mental health care for the child welfare population in Germany. In this paper, we present the first wave of data collected in a nonrandomized pretest–posttest intervention study, in which we examined the collaboration between child welfare services and CAP clinics in Northern Germany with a sample of N = 204 professionals in total, from both organizations. We used two standardized measurements. The general quality of collaboration was measured using an established tool, the “Perceptions of Interprofessional Collaboration Model – Questionnaire” (PINCOM-Q). Perceptions of collaboration around children with complex care needs were measured with a newly developed scale, the “Perceptions of Interprofessional Collaboration Scale for Children with Multiple and Complex Needs” (PICOCC). The results show that perceptions of interprofessional collaboration differed based on organizational and professional affiliation. Frontline workers employed in the child welfare system compared to those working in CAP clinics had a more negative perception of collaboration in general, and felt their organization provided less support for collaboration. Social workers in both CAP and child welfare services perceived less organizational support for collaboration compared to mental health professionals. In the overall group of social workers, those working in the child welfare system felt their organization supported collaboration the least. Mental health professionals working in CAP clinics, however, had a more negative perception of collaboration around children with complex needs. This suggests that attention should be paid to perceptions of interprofessional collaboration as an important process variable, which may impact on frontline workers’ responsiveness to organizational change.

Internationally Educated Nurses’ Perceptions of Interprofessional Collaboration

Internationally educated nurses’ (IENs) transition to practice in a new country is facilitated by education programs, commonly known as “bridging programs.” IENs experiences and understanding of interprofessional collaboration, essential in today’s health care environment, is often overlooked in education and research. Therefore, this mixed methods study sought to understand the experiences of IENs enrolled in a practical nursing bridging program at an urban community college in Canada. Findings indicate a need to address IENs’ understanding of interprofessional collaboration in their entry-to-practice education to optimize their role in the receiving country’s health care system.

Evaluating an interprofessional pharmacy and dental hygiene case-based learning activity with student reflections

Background and purposeInterprofessional collaboration between dentistry and pharmacy has great value but is often lacking in didactic and experiential education, particularly in dental hygiene programs. Educational activity and settingA case-based interprofessional assignment was implemented into the dental hygiene curriculum. Students reflected on their experiences and completed the International Collaborative Competencies Attainment Survey (ICCAS) to assess changes in self-reported interprofessional competencies following the activity. FindingsReflections revealed knowledge gain themes, with medication-related oral health concerns most frequent (53), followed by systemic adverse effects of medications (31), impact of systemic health on oral health (21), drug-drug interactions (17), and drug information (2). Additionally, students identified both future plans to collaborate with a pharmacist (25) and application of clinical knowledge gained (25). Scores from the ICCAS increased significantly in most of the domain statements following the interprofessional activity. DiscussionThis interprofessional education (IPE) activity increased student knowledge of the pharmacy profession and provided an experience with interprofessional communication. Students identified the impact of medications on oral health, as well as the value of interprofessional collaboration and communication. SummaryThis IPE activity positively impacted student perceptions of interprofessional collaboration with pharmacists.

Память о предательстве: образ коллаборациониста в послевоенном советском кинематографе

Introduction. Researchers have studied manifestations of collaborationism of Soviet citizens during the Great Patriotic War quite well, however, the problem of the perception of collaborators in the postwar period needs additional coverage. Of particular interest is the reflection of this topic in art cinema, which was one of the most important means of propaganda. Methods and materials. The basis of the study was a systematic approach. Historical-genetic and historical-comparative methods were applied, in addition, content analysis was used to identify characteristic characters, images, ideas in films. The study was carried out on the basis of published materials, as well as archival files, which make it possible to compare the motivation of collaborators during the Great Patriotic War with its representation in Soviet cinema. Analysis. The study of the evolution of the coverage of the Great Patriotic War and related events in cinema made it possible to identify the main genre and stylistic devices used to demonstrate the place and role of collaborators. Through the analysis of the motivation of collaborators based on the protocols of their interrogations and investigative cases, as well as the consideration of their behavior in feature films, the functions of this topic in the Soviet propaganda discourse were determined. Results. The study of the methods and forms of demonstration of collaborationism showed this problem was reflected in Soviet cinema throughout the entire post-war period. Cooperation with the Germans was explained by several reasons: nationalist motives, hatred of the Soviet regime, cowardice or a desire to save one’s own life, or pathological manifestations up to mental illness. Authors’ contribution. O.V. Romanko proposed the concept of the article, supervised the research, studied the sources and historiography of the problem, and edited the final text of the paper. E.V. Prosolova carried out analytical work on the analysis of sources, systematization and classification of the image of a collaborator in Soviet cinema, designed the text of the article.

Ready Coder One: Collaborative Game Design-Based Learning on Gifted Fourth Graders’ 21st Century Skills

The purpose of this research was to describe the impact of digital game building on fourth grade gifted and talented students’ problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration skills. Increasingly, there has been a call to involve students in real-world experiences through projects that explore authentic issues using technology. Game design-based learning with its unique set of affordances may offer a path to integrating technology, computer science education, creativity, and problem-solving. Increasingly, the ability to create rather than just consume technology has gained attention linking creativity and collaboration to using coding language. In this study, data collection included student reflection journals, classroom observations, classroom video recordings, a focus group interview, and students’ games. Participants came from two GT classes ( n = 45). Qualitative analysis identified five themes: overcoming challenges of group work, developing a culture of collaboration, creating narrative, and connecting science, problem-solving in Scratch’s coding environment, and reflecting on learning. Findings indicated involving gifted students in game design-based learning in science had a positive impact on student perceptions of problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration.

Interprofessional education during international electives: Perceptions of health professions students from selected institutions in Africa

ABSTRACT Although international electives provide important opportunities for the development of interprofessional education and collaboration practice skills, there is limited literature that describes students’ perceptions in various training institutions in Africa. This study aimed to address this gap by establishing the student’s perceptions of interprofessional education during international electives from four African health professional training universities. This was a cross-sectional quantitative study. Data were collected online using the Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale from 135 student participants. Linear regression and multilinear regression were used to establish relationships between socio-demographic characteristics and the student’s perception of interprofessional education during international electives. There was a high overall positive perception (76 SD± 8.1) among the student participants of interprofessional education during international electives. Almost all the students (88.9% n = 120) thought interprofessional education during international electives would help them become better team workers during future practice and enhance their communication skills. There were high mean scores regarding positive perceptions of teamwork and collaboration (39.5 SD± 4.9), positive professional identity 17.6 (SD± 2.6), and understanding roles and responsibilities (7.4 SD± 2.0). There is a generally positive perception of interprofessional education during international electives among health professions students from various African university institutions.
