Objective:
To find out what supports effective links between Divisions of General Practice and universities.
Design:
Qualitative study based on semi-structured interviews during October 2004, from which a framework for effective linking was constructed and its validity assessed by discussion with researchers and Division staff and members at four interactive workshops held between 9 November 2004 and 5 November 2005 .
Participants:
21 participants from Divisions of General Practice and universities in Australia.
Results:
Qualities conceptualised as "opportunity" and "fair relationships" were critical factors in establishing successful links between the two sectors. The relationship between these two factors describes the types of interactions that currently occur.
Conclusions:
To develop effective links requires an environment that promotes adequate opportunities, and in which mutual trust can grow. This will require commitment and system change from all parties.
