摘要:The method dyadic interviews involves interviewing a pair of participants, focusing explicitly on the interaction between them and how it develops data. Dyadic interviews with persons who are involved in ongoing, working relationships can be a feasible means of exploring research topics that are related to collaboration and collaborative practices. The concept of recovery is considered highly relevant to different kinds of relationship-based practices, involving a person and context centered shift within the field of mental health. What is referred to as recovery-oriented practices, is best understood as developed through collaboration. This involves a shift in the understanding of who beholds the expert knowledge and what knowledge “is,” acknowledging the importance of including different types and sources of knowledge when new knowledge is to be developed. In this paper we explore how dyadic interviews with pairs consisting of mental health service users and professionals can facilitate co-created knowledge about recovery as collaborative practices through collaboration. We argue that dyadic interviews can enable development of dialogic and collaborative knowledge, potentially blurring and challenging boundaries between knowledge-bases and roles.
