Presentations 2023

Methods and Musings on How to Advance Team and Network Based Approaches in Implementation Science

Dr. Christina Yuan provides an overview of her work to use social network and systems science methods to better understand how people interact and influence one another during the implementation process. She  shares some musings around several concepts from the team science and management literature that could inform the field of implementation science.

Testing the Effectiveness of an Organizational Implementation Strategy for Two Evidence-Based Autism Interventions in School and Mental Health Services: The TEAMS Trials

Drs. Lauren Brookman-Frazee and Aubyn Stahmer share the results of the “Translating Evidence-based Interventions for Autism: Multi-Level Implementation Strategy” (TEAMS) study. The TEAMS Study looked at how training for leaders in mental health and school programs might help teachers and therapists learn to deliver evidence-based autism interventions. They share information about the type of training leaders received, how they supported providers in learning evidence-based practices and how leader support affected provider use of the strategies and children’s behavioral outcomes.
