Recent decades have witnessed burgeoning academic collaboration. As an important practice to achieve innovation and scientific progress, academic collaboration enables researchers to share work and exchange ideas, oftentimes across institutional, national, and disciplinary boundaries, and pool their resources and expertise. In response to a heavy emphasis on publishing, scholars have increasingly collaborated on publications in the form of multiple authorship. It is interesting to note that, however, patterns of multiple authorship seem to vary with discipline. This presentation will report research that describes the patterns of multiple authorship in language education using a bibliometric approach. This report also provides insights into how to enhance collaboration derived from the literature on Social Interdependence Theory (Johnson & Johnson, 2009).
