Abstract

Duet writing in science establishes a “third space” between working and publishing alone and doing it in a group. It reduces isolation, supports motivation and provides confidence to take risks. More influenced by the institutional peculiarities that frame them than other pairs of writers, in the order of their constitution they are distinguished by being composed by researchers from the same or different disciplines. In this joint process, intellectual and material resources are made available, obtained and shared with the primary objective of generating and communicating scientific knowledge, with scientific publication being its main output. We established its phases in the research/writing/correction-publication sequence, which we describe according to a process-type approach. It allows us to highlight the interaction of psychological and sociological, methodological and technical, institutional and ethical factors.
