New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development
|September 17, 2015
Summary
Translating child health solutions into practice requires a new approach. Many programs aren't ready for dissemination, and developers often lack dissemination skills, necessitating improved support systems.
Area of Science:
- Child and adolescent health
- Health services research
- Knowledge translation
Background:
- Effective solutions for child and adolescent health problems often fail to reach widespread practice.
- Current science translation approaches are inadequate for implementing evidence-based interventions.
- Lessons from business and engineering can inform better dissemination strategies.
Purpose of the Study:
- To highlight shortcomings in current science translation for child and adolescent health.
- To challenge the status quo by proposing new propositions on evidence-based program dissemination.
- To introduce a new model for disseminating evidence-based solutions to improve child and adolescent health outcomes.
Main Methods:
- Application of business and engineering principles to science translation.
- Critical evaluation of current dissemination approaches and their limitations.
- Development of three core propositions regarding program readiness and developer capacity for dissemination.
Main Results:
- Many evidence-based programs are not suitable for widespread dissemination.
- Research-tested program versions often require further adaptation for real-world use.
- Intervention developers and testers may not be effective disseminators.
Conclusions:
- Current science translation models are insufficient for child and adolescent health.
- An enhanced dissemination support system is needed, incorporating new strategies.
- A novel conceptual model is proposed to improve the dissemination of evidence-based child and adolescent health solutions.

Distribution and Dispersion
25.9K
To understand intra-specific interactions in populations, scientists measure the spatial arrangement of species individuals. This geographic arrangement is known as the species distribution or dispersion. Highly territorial species exhibit a uniform distribution pattern, in which individuals are spaced at relatively equal distances from one another. Species that are highly tied to particular resources, such as food or shelter, tend to concentrate around those resources, and thus exhibit a...

Distribution Reliability and Automation
624
Distribution reliability in electrical power systems is critical for ensuring an uninterrupted power supply to consumers at minimal cost. According to IEEE Standard Terms, reliability is the probability that a device will function without failure over a specified time period or amount of usage. For electric power distribution, this translates to maintaining continuous power supply and addressing customer concerns over power outages. Several indices, as defined by IEEE Standard 1366-2012, are...

Facilitated Diffusion
1.6K
The plasma membrane, a critical structure in cellular biology, houses an array of transporters, or carrier proteins, interspersed within its lipid bilayer. These proteins play a crucial role in solute transport through facilitated diffusion, a form of passive diffusion that uses transporters to move the molecules across the membrane.
In this process, substrates such as organic compounds and ions interact with a transporter on one side, triggering conformational changes in proteins that enable...

Distributed Loads: Problem Solving
1.2K
Beams are structural elements commonly employed in engineering applications requiring different load-carrying capacities. The first step in analyzing a beam under a distributed load is to simplify the problem by dividing the load into smaller regions, which allows one to consider each region separately and calculate the magnitude of the equivalent resultant load acting on each portion of the beam. The magnitude of the equivalent resultant load for each region can be determined by calculating...

Diffusion
7.3K
Diffusion is a type of passive transport. In passive transport, a substance tends to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until the concentration is equal across the space. For example, take the diffusion of substances through the air. When someone opens a perfume bottle in a room filled with people, the perfume is at its highest concentration in the bottle and is at its lowest at the edges of the room. The perfume vapor will diffuse, or spread away, from the...
