Abstract
Creating interventions benefits from an interdisciplinary team with varying types of expertise. Novelty in intervention creation can be extended beyond the addition of new technologies to include innovations in methodologies used to create interventions. The purpose of this paper is to use and expand a previously introduced model to sustain new interdisciplinary research collaborations: Forging Alliances in Interdisciplinary Rehabilitation Research (FAIRR). In this paper, we propose to expand FAIRR by incorporating theories and frameworks central to intervention creation, altering inputs (resources necessary to construct interventions), modifying activities (tasks that teams undertake to create interventions), and including the iterative nature of the relationship among the components of the model. A case application is used to underscore how the FAIRR model can be applied to creating an intervention using a mixed methods approach.
