Drawing on a written survey with n = 62 participants, the empirical study provides findings on three research questions.

N2 - This study provides a) an evaluative framework for boundary-crossing collaboration in teacher education, which is inspired by the discourse of transdisciplinarity. In addition, it offers b) empirical insights about so-called Transdisciplinary Development Teams, which comprise practitioners, researchers, and student teachers. The framework bases on (1) epistemic, (2) social, and (3) organisational integration characteristics such as (1a) mutual learning, (1b) knowledge integration, (2a) perceived trustworthiness, (2b) appreciation within the team, and (3a) collective ownership of goals.

Third, the analysis of a manifest path model substantiates theoretically assumed effect relationships.
