After randomised trials: issues related to dissemination of evidence‐based interventions
Abstract
Demonstrating the efficacy and effectiveness of prevention programmes in rigorous randomised trials is only the beginning of a process that may lead to better public health outcomes. Although a growing number of programmes have been shown to be effective at reducing drug use and delinquency among young people under carefully controlled conditions, we are now faced with a new set of obstacles. First, these evidence‐based programmes are still under‐utilised compared to prevention strategies with no empirical support. Second, when effective programmes are used the evidence suggests they are not being implemented with quality and fidelity. Third, effective programmes are often initiated with short‐term grant funding, creating a challenge for sustainability beyond seed funding. We discuss each of these challenges, and present lessons learned from a large‐scale dissemination effort involving over 140 evidence‐based programme replications in one state in the US.

“The central motivation for understanding factors that affect implementation fidelity and quality is that high levels of implementation fidelity and quality are associated with better outcomes.”

In the citing paper
“Although high levels of fidelity have occurred in well controlled studies (e.g., Mihalic et al. 2004), when programs go to scale in the “real world,” strict fidelity to implementation typically is lost (Dusenbury et al. 2003; Bumbarger and Perkins 2008).”

“…it is important to recognize the unique needs at each phase for differing intervention models, an important question is whether there also are common solutions to common implementation problems across intervention types (see Bumbarger and Perkins 2008; Dariotis et al. 2008; Wandersman et al. 2008).”

“However, there is accumulating evidence of considerable ‘treatment failure’ with these and other evidence-based programs, meaning that the results found in initial trials are not replicated, or at least are harder to reproduce, in the real world (Bumbarger & Perkins, 2008; Little, 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
