Implementation Research and Evaluation
Consult or collaborate with AIRN on your implementation research and evaluation projects.
Our involvement in implementation research and evaluation relates to both development and delivery. We collaborate with researchers and evaluators who use the Active Implementation Frameworks™ in their work, as well as those interested in studying the application and impact of implementation strategies.
We are also available to support the design of implementation research and the development of meaningful measurement approaches.
Assistance in research design or evaluation of the Active Implementation Frameworks.
AIRN can assist you in the design of your research and in clarifying the functions and components of the Frameworks. We can also partner with you in the identification of evaluative opportunities related to the use and application of the Active Implementation Frameworks. Contact us to discuss your research and evaluation interests or needs.
Support for implementation measurement and data-informed decision-making
We support operationalizing innovations and interventions and the development of fidelity instruments designed to assess for quality and adherence to innovations and interventions.
We also consult on data collection and data use related to the process of implementation (e.g., designing, usability testing, and validating measurements related to the effectiveness of training, coaching delivery, and implementation team functioning).

Family Specialist Fidelity Evaluation
This sample fidelity assessment is part of the overall evaluation of Family Specialists in a Teaching-Family program.
Implementation Methods and Measures
Advancing implementation as a science requires experiments that test predictions derived from theory.
Researcher Perspectives on Implementation Research
In 2005 a meeting of expert researchers was held to develop an outline for a multi-site, multi-year program of research to dramatically improve the practice and science of implementation.
