“…When ISPs are providing consultation/facilitation , five common components emerged across studies: (1) identifying the support needs of those involved in the consultation/facilitation efforts, for example, through formalized, periodic needs assessments (Duffy et al, 2012), structured interviews (Bice-Urbach & Kratochwill, 2016), or by explicitly inviting stakeholders to articulate their support needs in each session (Akin, 2016; Chilenski et al, 2016); (2) educating and professionally supporting these stakeholders, for example, through processes such as learning from others (Akin, 2016), role-plays (Barac et al, 2018), didactic teaching (Beidas et al, 2013; Chaffin et al, 2016), answering questions (Chilenski et al, 2016; Hurtubise et al, 2016; Kelly et al, 2000), or offering advice (Rosen et al, 2012); (3) monitoring the progress and/or performance of stakeholders, for example, by measuring fidelity (Bice-Urbach & Kratochwill, 2016; Caron & Dozier, 2019; Eiraldi et al, 2018; Murray et al, 2018), program outcomes (Funderburk et al, 2015; Olson et al, 2018), or progress toward other implementation or service goals (Chilenski et al, 2016; Holtrop et al, 2008; Preast & Burns, 2018); (4) identifying implementation barriers and problems faced as part of the change efforts, typically related to learning a new practice (Dusenbury et al, 2010; Eiraldi et al, 2018; Kauth et al, 2010; Nadeem, Gleacher, Pimentel, et al, 2013) and/or enabling its implementation within a particular local context (Rosella et al, 2018; Saldana & Chamberlain, 2012; Tierney et al, 2014); and (5) identifying potential solutions to these problems, including next steps to initiate these. This final step was at times characterized as “troubleshooting” (Chaffin et al, 2016; Hodge et al, 2017; Meropol et al, 2014) signaling a more urgent and ad hoc type of character that this strategy could take. Other studies emphasized that consultation/facilitation depended on a climate conducive to jointly identifying and solving problems among multiple stakeholders (Dogherty et al, 2012; Hurlburt et al, 2014), thereby indicating that it could take time for ISPs to create adequate conditions ...…”

Purpose: Skills in selecting and designing strategies for implementing research-supported interventions (RSIs) within specific local contexts are important for progressing a wider RSI adoption and application in human and social services. This also applies to a particular role in implementation, the implementation support practitioner (ISP). This study examines which strategies have been reported as being used by ISPs across multiple bodies of research on implementation support and how these strategies were applied in concrete practice settings. Methods: A systematic integrative review was conducted. Data analysis utilized the Expert Recommendations for Implementing Change compilation of implementation strategies. Results: Studies reported on 18 implementation strategies commonly used by different ISPs, who require mastery in selecting, operationalizing, and detailing these. Two further strategies not included in the ERIC compilation could be identified. Discussion: Given the use of primarily more feasible implementation support strategies among ISPs, their potential as agents of change may be underutilized.

“…Such meaningful learning helped to develop stakeholders' self-efficacy, displayed in a deeper understanding of evidencebased practice (Aasekjaer et al, 2016) and of one's own specific practice area (Anaby et al, 2015;Brown et al, 2018b;Kristensen & Hounsgaard, 2013); more clarity on the intervention (Akin, 2016) and greater confidence to apply this intervention (Hodge, Turner, Sanders, & Forster, 2017;Leeman, Myers, Grant, Wangen, & Queen, 2017;Rosella et al, 2018;Shernoff et al, 2015); the generation of "applicable and doable" (Akin, 2016, p. 165) ideas for practice; and an improved individual capacity to solve problems that occurred as part of the implementation process (Bradshaw, Pas, Goldweber, Rosenberg, & Leaf, 2012;Calo et al, 2018;McCullough et al, 2017). A single study (Gunderson et al, 2018) involved ISPs who displayed an unprofessional attitude, decreasing the perceived self-efficacy with which their stakeholders applied the RSI in focus of the study.…”

Purpose: Mechanisms of Change (MoC) explain how strategies used to enhance the uptake of evidence in social and human services enable change in the behaviors of individual practitioners, organizational leaders or entire organizations, and systems. One such strategy is the use of implementation support practitioner (ISPs). This study examines the mechanisms through which ISPs facilitate behavior supportive of the implementation of research-supported interventions. Methods: A systematic, integrative review was conducted. The conceptualization of MoCs built on a model by Dalkin and colleagues. Results: Based on a unique combination of knowledge, skills, and attitudes, ISPs install trust in and among their stakeholders and utilize this trust to promote meaningful and relevant learning; provide ongoing opportunities for learning, reflection, and support; help to span boundaries; and positively motivate stakeholders. Discussion: ISPs do not represent a short cut to better implementation. They represent an additional implementation challenge that requires dedicated attention and resources.

“…an increase in inter-parental conflict and lower relationship satisfaction (Landers-Potts et al, 2015 [43]; O'Neal et al, 2015 [45]; Helms et al, 2014 [46]) 3. Parents' psychological distress and problems with the inter-parental relationship in turn lead to an increase in harsh or inconsistent parenting practices (Newland et al, 2013[47]; Iruka, LaForett and Odom, 2012 [44]; Emmen et al, 2013 [48]).…”
