Harnessing Human-Centered Design for Evidence-Based Psychosocial Interventions and Implementation Strategies in Community Settings: Protocol for Redesign to Improve Usability, Engagement, and Appropriateness.
JMIR Res Protoc
January 2025
Division of Services and Interventions Research, National Institute of Mental Health, Bethesda, MD, United States.
Background: Although substantial progress has been made in establishing evidence-based psychosocial clinical interventions and implementation strategies for mental health, translating research into practice-particularly in more accessible, community settings-has been slow.
Objective: This protocol outlines the renewal of the National Institute of Mental Health-funded University of Washington Advanced Laboratories for Accelerating the Reach and Impact of Treatments for Youth and Adults with Mental Illness Center, which draws from human-centered design (HCD) and implementation science to improve clinical interventions and implementation strategies. The Center's second round of funding (2023-2028) focuses on using the Discover, Design and Build, and Test (DDBT) framework to address 3 priority clinical intervention and implementation strategy mechanisms (ie, usability, engagement, and appropriateness), which we identified as challenges to implementation and scalability during the first iteration of the center.

Several international agreements acknowledge public participation, equity, and democracy as necessary conditions to achieve Health Promotion. For this purpose, if we accept the validity of distinct systems of knowledge, we realize the relevance of an approach to healthcare based on a pluralist epistemology, which sustains the legitimacy of traditional knowledge in its own processes of production, transmission, and application. In this study, we aim to investigate the notions and understandings of traditional healing practices in a city near Curitiba, in Southern Brazil.
