In clinical psychology, as in almost every research field, the significance of collaborative efforts cannot be overestimated. Therefore, the question is not whether the field needs Big Team Science (BTS) to reveal the complexity of the social mind, but how researchers shall achieve this, particularly when studying vulnerable populations.
While a large sample size holds the promise of investigating key theoretical assumptions with sufficient statistical power, the complexity of a BTS collaboration poses challenges and limitations. I would like to engage in a discussion with the community regarding potential study designs and tangible strategies (e.g., networking, patient access, funding, etc.) for establishing a BTS group in the domain of clinical psychology.
