Determining the process components of impact assessment in health and social program implementation: A scoping review of theories, models and frameworks.

Objectives: Health and social service research impact analysis play a pivotal role in demonstrating research value. Impact analysis of programs, interventions, or policies in real-world settings is complex. There are many implementation evaluation theories, models, and frameworks (TMF) and researchers find choosing one challenging.

Mental Health Care Navigation Tools in Australia: Infoveillance Study.

Background: In response to the well-documented fragmentation within its mental health system, Australia has witnessed recently rapid expansion in the availability of digital mental health care navigation tools. These tools focus on assisting consumers to identify and access appropriate mental health care services, the proliferation of such varied web-based resources risks perpetuating further fragmentation and confusion for consumers. There is a pressing need to systematically assess the characteristics, comprehensiveness, and validity of these navigation tools, especially as demand for digital resources continues to escalate.

Mapping review of 'proof-of-concept' in mental health implementation research using the TRL framework: a need for a better focus and conceptual clarification.

Background: Proof-of-concept (PoC) development is a key step in implementation sciences. However, there is a dearth of studies in this area and the use of this term in health and social sciences is ambiguous.

Objective: The objective was to remove the ambiguity surrounding the PoC and pilot study stage in the research development process using a standard system to rate the development of projects and applications provided by the Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) framework.

Adaptation of the technology readiness levels for impact assessment in implementation sciences: The TRL-IS checklist.

Background: Intervention development is a critical process in implementation research. There are key stages involved in the process to design, pilot, demonstrate and release a technology or an intervention. The Technology Readiness Level (TRL) is a globally accepted instrument for assessing the maturity of research development.

The EMPOWER Occupational e-Mental Health Intervention Implementation Checklist to Foster e-Mental Health Interventions in the Workplace: Development Study.

Background: Occupational e-mental health (OeMH) interventions significantly reduce the burden of mental health conditions. The successful implementation of OeMH interventions is influenced by many implementation strategies, barriers, and facilitators across contexts, which, however, are not systematically tracked. One of the reasons is that international consensus on documenting and reporting the implementation of OeMH interventions is lacking.
