A Sociological Analysis of Teamwork within a Big Team Science Project

This project involved 20 semi-structured interviews with iUTAH researchers to ask questions pertaining to teamwork processes inherent in large scale interdisciplinary projects. Additionally, questions pertaining to project success and project evaluation were asked. Interviews were conducted either in-person with researchers who were located in the state, and over the phone with researchers who were located out of the state. Interviews were recorded and transcribed and analyzed for the aforementioned themes. Interviews may not be shared in order to protect the identify of participants. At the completion of the project, a masters thesis will be made publicly available describing the methods and findings from this project.

本项目共开展20场针对iUTAH研究者的半结构化访谈，调研问题围绕大型跨学科项目中固有的团队协作流程展开。此外，调研还涵盖了与项目成效及项目评估相关的内容。访谈针对本州研究者采用线下形式进行，针对外州研究者则通过电话开展。所有访谈均完成录音与转写，并围绕前述主题进行分析。为保护参与者身份信息，本次访谈内容不予公开。项目结题后，一篇阐述本项目研究方法与核心发现的硕士学位论文将向公众开放获取。
