RT Article T1 And you know, we’re on each other’s team: Lessons from an in-depth analysis of researcher–practitioner partnerships in criminal justice research JF International journal of comparative and applied criminal justice VO 48 IS 3 SP 179 OP 204 A1 Hodgkinson, Tarah A2 Schaefer, Lacey A2 Harte, Niamh A2 Pearson, Nicola A2 Lonergan, Natasha A2 Barber, Claire LA English YR 2024 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1897091192 AB Researcher–practitioner partnerships (RPPs) bring together multiple perspectives to create more holistic, contextually grounded, and arguably better criminal justice solutions. However, a better understanding of how these partnerships operate and what contributes to success is needed, particularly for new and emerging scholars who may be inexperienced in creating and sustaining RPPs. Previous research has explored the process of creating RPPs, but much of this research is limited by singular partnerships or anecdotal experiences. Further, this research does not account for the myriad of RPP types within the criminal justice field. Our study involves an analysis of 20 years of National Institute of Justice-funded RPPs in the United States. Our findings identify clear themes from this extensive review of the literature and provide empirically based lessons learned for RPPs. As such, this study is designed to support new and established researchers with guidance on how to better create and maintain RPPs.
