“…The referenced policy process theories include the multiple streams theory (Kingdon, 1995), the punctuated equilibrium theory (Baumgartner & Jones, 1993), the social construction theory (Ingram, Schneider, & deLeon, 2007; Schneider & Ingram, 1997), and the advocacy coalition framework (Sabatier & Jenkins‐Smith, 1993). Among policy process theories, the advocacy coalition framework is used most because it already states hypotheses about the use of science in policymaking (Sabatier, 1987, 2005; Sabatier & Zafonte, 2001). Beyond the literature on policy process theories, this review draws heavily on the research utilization literature including Amara, Ouimet, and Landry (2004), Caplan, Morrison, and Stanbaugh (1975), Rich (1975, 1991), and Weiss (1977).…”
