Abstract
The study explored the influence of Mass Communication collaboration on research outcomes in selected universities in the South-South of Nigeria. The paper observed that the influence of research collaboration amongst Mass Communication scholars was high. The most influential factors to collaborative research practice were enhanced team approach in research and the generation of new insights or perceptions that individuals working on their own may not have been able to achieve. The issue of internet connectivity, difficulty in working with colleagues in research as many of them may not be able to contribute anything, and being afraid of inadequate contribution by co-authors were the most established drawbacks discovered in this study. The study recommended that there should be research collaboration that is anchored on the necessary atmosphere that will make the exercise worthwhile by institutions of learning.
