Translation Models and Frameworks

Discussion: Translation Models and Frameworks

Collaboration offers the advantage of other experiences and viewpoints to confirm or challenge your own. Discussions can do the same and for some topics, getting early feedback is especially valuable. This Discussion is one such example. As you dig into the science of translation and select a framework or model for your proposed EBP QI project, you can look to your class colleagues for a check on your choice and your reasoning. 

To prepare:

• Review the Week 5 Learning Resources. Pay particular attention to the featured frameworks/models, below, in the White, Dudley-Brown, and Terhaar text.

• Identify the translation science framework or model that is most relevant to your practice problem from among the following three models and consider your reasoning:

o Roger’s Diffusion of Innovations (pp. 36–39);

o Knowledge-to-Action (pp. 42–45);

o Theory of Reasoned Action (pp. 66–67).

• Assess your understanding of “translation science” and how you would explain it in the context of evidence-based practice and quality improvement.

With these thoughts in mind …

Discussion

Post an explanation of the translation science framework or model that you selected and explain why it is most relevant to your practice problem. Be specific and provide examples.
