Furthering Understanding of D&I Models Theories present a systematic way of understanding events or behaviors by providing inter-related concepts, definitions, and propositions that explain or predict events by specifying relationships among variables. Frameworks Models are strategic or action-planning models that provide a systematic way to develop, manage, and evaluate interventions. is used to describe theories and frameworks collectively.

Diffusions of Innovations Diffusion is a process where an innovation is communicated through certain channels over time among members of a social system Everett Rogers, 1962

The Innovation An idea, practice or object that is perceived as new by an individual or other unit of adoption.

The Innovation Characteristics of Innovation – Relative Advantage Compatability Complexity Trialability Observability

A Social System The social structure of the system affects the innovation’s diffusion in several ways. – how the system’s social structure affects diffusion, – the effect of norms on diffusion, – the roles of opinion leaders

THE INNOVATION-DECISION PROCESS - the process through which an individual passes from first knowledge of an innovation to forming an attitude toward the innovation, to a decision to adopt or reject it. Five stages in the innovation-decision process: (1) knowledge, (2) persuasion, (3) decision, (4) implementation, and (5) confirmation.

Rate of Adoption Most innovations have an S-shaped rate of adoption.

Synthesis and Translation • • Evidence synthesis Systematic review Integrative review Meta-analysis Review of literature State of the science review • • • Translation: o Identify key characteristics o Identify core elements o Highlight process for adaptation o Package so core elements are implemented with fidelity to the program design.
