Scientists and practitioners alike need reliable, valid measures of contextual factors that influence implementation. Yet, few existing demonstrate reliability or validity. To meet this need, we developed assessed the psychometric properties several constructs within Inner Setting domain Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). We searched literature 7 (Culture Overall, Culture Stress, Effort, Climate, Learning Leadership Engagement, Available Resources). adapted items...

Methods A survey sent a cohort school-based fitness assessment software users. Respondents were largely individuals including teachers ( n = 1789), school 62) district administrators 64), nurses 3), “other” 522). Results...

Abstract Background The burdens of anxiety and depression symptoms have significantly increased in the general US population, especially during this COVID-19 epidemiological crisis. first step an effective treatment for disorders is screening. Patient Health Questionnaire-4 (PHQ-4, a 4-item measure anxiety/depression) its subscales (PHQ-2 [a 2-item depression] Generalized Anxiety Disorder [GAD-2, anxiety]) are brief but mass screening instruments populations. However, little to no study...

Objective: Regular physical activity (PA) is an important component of pediatric asthma management. No studies have examined how in-school management influences PA from children's perspectives. The aim this study was to explore perceptions the impact on PA. Methods: Qualitative interviews with 23 inner-city minority children (aged 8–10 yrs; 12 girls, 11 boys) were conducted in 10 Bronx, New York elementary schools. Sampling continued until saturation reached. Interviews recorded, transcribed...

Community engagement is critical to accelerate and improve implementation of evidence-based interventions reduce health inequities. Community-engaged dissemination research (CEDI) emphasizes engaging stakeholders (e.g., community members, practitioners, organizations, etc.) with diverse perspectives, experience, expertise provide tacit knowledge regarding the local context, priorities, needs, assets. Importantly, CEDI can help inequities through incorporating unique perspectives from...

Study Design. A retrospective study of 134 adolescent patients who underwent surgical correction idiopathic scoliosis between June 1992 and August 1998 was conducted. Objective. To examine factors related to changes in somatosensory-evoked potentials with or without neurogenic motor-evoked potentials. Summary Background Data. Studies document demonstrate threshold criteria for neuromonitoring that predict spinal cord function. Rates false-negative occurrences are low, yet higher rates...

Abstract Previous work on the effects of crystallinity autoxidation polyolefins is briefly reviewed and shows that polyethylene polypropylene oxidize exclusively in amorphous phase. Measurements rate oxidation poly(4‐methyl pentene‐1) (P4MP) show first‐order oxygen pressure over a wide range film thickness, pressure, temperature. A simple model diffusion followed by chemical reaction fits data very well. Values coefficient for its activation energy, calculated from data, agree well with...

Organizational readiness is essential for high-quality implementation of innovations (programs, policies, practices, or processes). The R = MC 2 heuristic describes three components necessary implementation—the general functioning the organization (general capacities), ability to deliver a particular innovation (innovation-specific and motivation implement innovation. In this article, we describe how used Readiness Building System (RBS) assessing, prioritizing, improving Implementation...

Abstract Background One factor considered essential to successful implementation is organizational readiness. The purpose of this study was explore ways improve the measurement readiness, and in particular refine a preliminary measure based on Readiness = Motivation x innovation Specific Capacity General (R MC2) heuristic. We assessed experiences staff Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC) implementing evidence-based interventions (EBIs) designed increase colorectal cancer screening...

Abstract An apparatus is described for the measurement of oxygen uptake into a polymer sample at constant pressures in range 20–1000 mm Hg. Measurements rate poly‐4‐methylpentene‐1 show that accurately first‐order pressure over 50–800 temperatures ranging from 122 to 154°C and film thickness 0.001–0.025 cm. A theoretical treatment kinetics reaction which diffuses both faces thin film, it consumed by shows oxidation ρ per unit area surface given = ∞ tanh ß L /2 where limiting thick thickness,...

Abstract Background Schools are a key setting for supporting youth physical activity, given their broad reach and diverse student populations. Organizational readiness is precursor to the successful implementation of school-based activity opportunities. The R = MC 2 heuristic (Readiness Motivation x Innovation-Specific Capacity General Capacity) describes as function an organization’s motivation capacity implement innovation can be applied better understand process. purpose this study was...

Existing adverse childhood experience (ACE) measures include a limited number of household dysfunction (HD) items and the use adult-oriented language that is not always appropriate for middle schoolers. We developed an age-appropriate 10-item HD measure informed by previously validated ACE tested its concurrent validity with dating violence (DV) perpetration, lifetime substance use, mental health outcomes among schoolers in Southeast Texas. This cross-sectional study used baseline data from...

Accurate and valid measures for implementation constructs are critical to advance research guide efforts. However, there is a continued need reliable research. The purpose of this study was assess the psychometric properties Inner Setting domain Consolidated Framework Implementation Research (CFIR) in network pediatric clinics.This used cross-sectional survey data collected from physicians, advanced practice providers, clinic managers, clinical staff (n = 546) working 51). Surveys included...

Abstract Background Organizational readiness is important for the implementation of evidence-based interventions. Currently, there a critical need comprehensive, valid, reliable, and pragmatic measure organizational that can be used throughout process. This study aims to develop support in two public health settings: federally qualified centers (FQHCs) schools. The informed by Interactive Systems Framework Dissemination Implementation R = MC 2 heuristic ( r eadiness m otivation ×...

Multiple models and frameworks exist for the measurement classification of physical activity in adults that are applied broadly across populations but have limitations when to youth. The authors propose a conceptual framework specifically designed classifying youth activity.

This study aimed to examine the relation between learning mode with sport participation and compare prevalence in different settings by among United States adolescents during COVID-19 pandemic. A cross-sectional, national survey was conducted a market research company (December 2021-January 2022) parents whose child participated sports pre-pandemic. Parents were asked about their child's (in-person, online, hybrid); (yes/no) pandemic; setting (school, community, club/elite). Weighted...

We compared failure rates posterior cruciate-substituting arthroplasty utilizing implants with hardened surface coating to a previous cohort patients who underwent procedure traditional cruciate-retaining noncoated cobalt-chrome implants.A retrospective study was conducted 1099 arthroplasties performed from 2009 2017. Two hundred forty-nine January 2015 March 2017 under single design were reviewed...

Cancer prevention and control (CPC) behaviors, such as cancer screening, human papillomavirus vaccination, smoking cessation, are critical public health issues. Evidence-based interventions have been identified to improve the uptake of CPC behaviors; however, they often inconsistently implemented, affecting their reach effectiveness. Patient navigation is an evidence-based approach increasing behaviors. Nevertheless, there few programs that use systematically developed implementation...

Abstract Implementing evidence‐based interventions remains slow in federally qualified health centers (FQHCs). The purpose of this study is to qualitatively examine the R = MC 2 ( eadiness m otivation × innovation specific c apacity general apacity) heuristic subcomponents context implementing and colorectal cancer screening (CRCS)‐related practice changes FQHCs. We conducted 17 interviews with FQHC employees (1) experiences successful or unsuccessful change efforts, (2) using approaches...
