Research by committee: a format to organize and conduct studies.
Research by committee is a relatively new format to conduct research projects. Since this format is best suited for projects that are multifaceted, the conduct of clinical validation studies of nursing diagnosis, which requires the input of educators, clinical experts and researchers, is possible. In order to conduct research by committee effectively, several dimensions must be considered such as how to form and coordinate a committee, as well as how to use resources, distribute workload, and motivate members. The author offers attributes of research by committee and a practical guide for optimally utilizing a committee format for the conduct of studies.
