Implementing Implementation Science: Reviewing the Quest to Develop Methods and Frameworks for Effective Implementation
Journal Title: Journal of Neurology and Psychology - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
How to tackle the implementation of Implementation Science is the theme of this discussion. For many of us, Implementation Science itself may need some introduction. Implementation Science is an emerging science exploring barriers to intervention effectiveness in real world contexts. The science of implementation currently comprises a multi-disciplinary set of theories, methods and evidence aimed at improving the processes of translation from research evidence to every day practices across a wide variety of human service and policy contexts. It shares perspectives and methods to some extent with translation research and with prevention science [1,2].
