Résumé
La valeur ajoutée d’établir des relations entre chercheurs et milieux de pratique pour favoriser l’utilisation des connaissances scientifiques n’est plus à démontrer. Il est cependant difficile de s’assurer que de telles relations amènent réellement une augmentation de l’utilisation des connaissances scientifiques dans la prise de décision. En prenant appui sur la théorie du capital social, cet article illustre trois dimensions (structurelle, relationnelle, cognitive) selon lesquelles les relations recherche-pratique devraient se construire afin de maximiser l’utilisation des connaissances scientifiques. Une réflexion critique entourant les indicateurs actuellement disponibles afin de mesurer le concept de « relations recherche-pratique » est également présentée.

Abstract
The added value of establishing and maintaining relationships between research and practice to promote the use of scientific knowledge is well established. However, it is difficult to ensure that such relationships actually increase the use of scientific knowledge in decision-making. Building on the social capital theory, this article illustrates three dimensions (structural, relational, cognitive) on which research-practice relationships should be built to maximize the use of scientific knowledge into practice settings. Critical issues surrounding the indicators currently available to measure the concept of “research-practice relationships” are also presented.
Keywords:
