An unresolved issue in the field of implementation research is how to conceptualize and evaluate successful implementation. This paper advances concept "implementation outcomes" distinct from service system clinical treatment outcomes. proposes a heuristic, working "taxonomy" eight conceptually outcomes—acceptability, adoption, appropriateness, feasibility, fidelity, cost, penetration, sustainability—along with their nominal definitions. We propose two-pronged agenda for on Conceptualizing...
Mental health policymaking to support the implementation of evidence-based practices (EBPs) largely has been directed toward clinicians. However, is known be dependent upon a broader ecology service delivery. Hence, focusing exclusively on individual clinicians as targets unlikely result in sustainable and widespread EBPs. Policymaking that informed by literature requires policymakers deploy strategies across multiple levels implementation. At organizational level, policies are needed...
Objectives: The aim of this study was to estimate the point prevalence psychotropic medication use, and describe relationships between child-level characteristics, provider type, use among children in child welfare system. Methods: National Survey Child Adolescent Well-Being is first nationally representative coming into contact with We used data from its baseline 12-month follow-up waves, conducted weighted bivariate analyses on a sample 3114 adolescents, 87% whom were residing in-home....
We sought to examine the extent which children in child welfare system receive mental health care consistent with national standards.
Improving quality in children's mental health and social service settings will require implementation strategies capable of moving effective treatments other innovations (e.g., assessment tools) into routine care. It is likely that efforts to identify, develop, refine be more successful if they are informed by relevant stakeholders responsive the strengths limitations contexts processes identified usual care settings. This study describe: types used; how organizational leaders make decisions...
Purpose Mental health inequalities based on race and ethnicity in the USA globally persist despite efforts to address them. The COVID-19 epidemic accentuated these demonstrated extent which they are linked social determinants. However, organizations that best placed ameliorate mental often underfunded under-resourced. Investment strategies restrict funding for programmatic costs rather than general operating disproportionately impact small serve communities of color. This study aims argue...
Aims and Objectives: It has been hypothesised that vestibular stimulation may have a modulatory effect on anxiety. The aim of this randomised, double blind, sham-controlled trial was to determine the efficacy safety non-invasive electrical nerve (VeNS) device as treatment for anxiety compared sham device. Materials methods: A total 60 participants (mean age [SD]: 35.6 [8.1]) with generalized disorder assessment (GAD-7) score ≥10 were randomised receive either an active VeNS (n = 34) or...
We determined the prevalence of and indications for psychotropic medication among preschool children in Medicaid.We obtained 2000 to 2003 Medicaid Analytic Extract data from 36 states. followed 2 cohorts, born 1999 2000, up age 4 years. used logistic regression model odds receiving medications (1) attention-deficit disorder/attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, (2) depression or anxiety, (3) psychotic illness bipolar.Overall, 1.19% received at least 1 drug. Medications disorder treatment...
Over the past decade, experimental therapeutics approach has gained currency as an organizing framework for research in mental health. However, examples of this outside person-directed therapeutic and preventive interventions have been relatively uncommon. This article describes to health human services that considers role social ecological determinants a person's recovery from disorder. To illustrate approach, decomposes employment intervention show three its components identifies targets...
Implementation researchers are increasingly using economic evaluation to explore the benefits produced by implementing evidence-based practices (EBPs) in healthcare settings. However, findings of typical evaluations (e.g., based on clinical trials) rarely sufficient inform decisions about how health service organizations and policymakers should finance investments EBPs. This paper describes can be translated into policy practice through complementary research financing strategies that...
Forced sexual intercourse is becoming more salient for adolescent women nationwide, but little known about revictimization and its mediators among adolescents in middle high school.Data on 7,545 who participated both Wave 1 (April-December 1995) 2 (1996) of the National Longitudinal Study Adolescent Health were used logistic regression analyses to identify predictors completed forced intercourse, estimate prevalence determine relationship between history sex revictimization.At 1, 7% reported...
