dc.description.abstractThis paper aims to clarify the concept of shared epistemic agency, with its constituting aspects, and to examine research that illustrates how these are expressed in different settings that involve knowledge construction. Building on theoretical works from learning sciences, educational psychology and sociology, shared epistemic agency is conceived as a complex phenomenon that emerges in a dynamic way, and is defined as a capacity that enables groups to carry out collaborative knowledge-based activities that lead to a shared outcome. A comparative analysis of empirical studies of agency shows different ways epistemic agency is expressed in the context of individual and collaborative groups' learning and research communities' knowledge work. This discussion foregrounds the idea that creating intellectual interdependence, which is deemed necessary to co-construct knowledge, is an effort that can be assigned both to individuals and groups, but also to how the structural context affords and facilitates this interdependence.en_US
