- Understand how EBIs are transferred from research to practice using CBIM as an example.
- Identify several factors that influence implementation and adaptation of EBIs in real-world settings.
- Understand how crowdsourcing can be used as a method to track implementation and outcomes and increase the spread of CBIM.
Description:
This symposium will use Coaching Boys Into Men (CBIM) as a case example to examine how researchers and practitioners can partner to promote evidence-based interventions (EBIs) in real-world settings. Presenters will: 1) describe CBIM’s core elements; 2) explain recent research on CBIM outcomes and implementation; 3) identify implementer characteristics that influence CBIM implementation and adaptations; 4) describe a pilot project that uses crowdsourcing to increase adoption of CBIM. Audience members will engage in a discussion about implications for violence prevention.
