“…In this respect, the identification of factors associated with the adoption of the ecological approach by planners and practitioners is crucial. Considering the ecological approach as an innovation in health promotion, we relied on literature regarding the adoption of innovation, 26 the utilization of innovative knowledge, 27,28 and the adoption of health behaviors 29,30 to build a theoretical framework outlining the professional and organizational profiles likely to be associated with the adoption of an ecological approach by health promotion practitioners operating in public health organizations (see Figure 1).…”

“…At the individual level, the strategy is intended to increase individual readiness [as measured by perceived need, commitment and self‐efficacy (self‐ability)], and skills to engage in producing and using research to prevent HIV/AIDS and care among adults, youth, women and family. A number of studies have found perceived need (Johnson 1989), commitment (Fishbein & Ajzen 1975; Fishbein 1995), self‐efficacy (Bandura 1986, 1989) and skills (Fishbein 1995) to be predictive of these behaviours.…”

Liberia's prolonged post-conflict transition has negatively impacted its health infrastructure, including the functioning of its health care delivery system. Considering the current national health crises, a study was conducted to identify research gaps and the need to propose changes for improving the health care delivery system in the country. The study results clearly demonstrated a lack of HIV/AIDS research infrastructure including organizational structure, linkages, leadership, champions, expertise, resources, and policies and procedures. Alignment of research needs and practice, and research use to support HIV/AIDS service delivery programmes in the country was also limited. An international research capacity-building partnership is proposed as an effective planned change strategy to strengthen HIV/AIDS-related research infrastructure and to inform management and practice within the Liberian HIV/AIDS service delivery system. A proposed capacity-building planning model can also strengthen research infrastructure and the production and use of research to positively impact the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Liberia and other developing countries.

The purpose of this exploratory study is to investigate organizational-level mechanisms in the Prevention Delivery System (PDS) and their influence on implementing comprehensive programming frameworks (e.g., Communities that Care-CtC) as the innovation. The PDS is part of the Interactive Systems Framework for Dissemination and Implementation (ISF) and describes key characteristics of innovation implementation and dissemination. The study addresses two research questions: (1) What types of organizational characteristics are related to successful use of each of the programming processes (i.e., planning, implementation, evaluation, and sustainability) that are part of comprehensive programming frameworks?; and (2) What are the similarities and differences in the organizational patterns correlated with use of each of the programming processes? Surveys, interview data, and other documents designed to assess organizational characteristics and extent of use of a comprehensive programming framework over time, were collected from 8 Community boards and 23 provider agencies. These organizations were responsible for planning and delivering substance abuse prevention services as part of a statewide initiative in Ohio. Data were analyzed using Spearman rho (and rank-biserial) correlations, with an emphasis on effect sizes. Results indicated that leadership, shared vision, process advocates, and technical assistance were common correlates of use across programming processes. However, the role played by these organizational variables differed for each programming process, pointing to complex interactions of the organizational infrastructure with other variables (i.e., characteristics of the innovation itself and external macro-level factors). This exploratory study provides preliminary data on the organizational-level mechanisms of the PDS and the complexity of their relationships with the other Systems in the Interactive Systems Framework.
