Abstract

With the increased emphasis on the generation of nursing knowledge through research, collaboration has been identified as an effective way of maximizing both personal and financial resources. There are few articles that specifically describe the process for initiating such a collaborative effort, especially when interested persons are far removed, geographically, from one another. This paper outlines the steps involved in establishing a research consortium and chronicles the development of the Nursing Consortium for Research on Chronic Sorrow. Lancaster's (1985) criteria for effective research collaboration are used to evaluate this developmental process.
