A complex‐systems paradigm can lead to evidence‐based policymaking and impactful action in substance misuse prevention—a rejoinder to Purshouse et al. (2018)
Abstract:We recently advocated for a paradigm shift in alcohol prevention research grounded in complex systems and dynamic modeling methodologies [1,2]. In response, Purshouse and colleagues [3] acknowledged that complex simulation modeling holds promise, and echoed our call for its application while emphasizing the importance of methodological care to ensure that such initiatives are useful. We agree that advanced computational capabilities, as well as policymakers' increased use of evidence, make this the right time… Show more
