  • Incentivizing Prevention

    Open AccessA Zamantakis, Juan Pablo Zapata et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2025

    While financial incentivization has been found to significantly increase HIV retesting, receipt of HIV test results, and viral suppression, little research has examined community-based organizations (CBOs) perspectives on implementing financial incentives. We interviewed 22 CBOs related to implementing financial incentives for client engagement in a digital HIV prevention intervention, Keep It Up! (KIU!). KIU! was designed with and for young men …

  • Therapeutic Assessment in a University Counseling Center

    Filippo Aschieri, Francesca Fantini et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality Assessment2024

    In this study, we pilot tested Therapeutic Assessment (TA) in a university counseling center using a replicated single-case design to generate hypotheses on the effectiveness and applicability for this setting and population. We aimed to see whether TA could be an effective brief intervention to address students' presenting mental health concerns. Further, we explored whether different types of presenting concerns were associated with differentia…

  • Stakeholders’ perception of factors influencing adoption of a pediatric weight management intervention

    Open AccessDesiree Sierra Velez, Desiree Sierra-Velez et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2023

    Background: Childhood obesity is highly prevalent in the United States and disproportionately impacts communities of color and low-income populations; these disparities have worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic. Adoption of effective pediatric weight management interventions (PWMIs) that have been evaluated among low-income diverse populations is needed. The Healthy Weight Clinic PWMI, a package co-developed by the American Academy of Pediatrics…

  • Virtual Reality Job Interview Training for Adults Receiving Prison-Based Employment Services

    Open AccessMatthew J Smith, Brittani Parham et al.ARTICLECriminal Justice and Behavior2023

    Returning citizens struggle to obtain employment after release from prison and navigating job interviews is a critical barrier they encounter. Implementing evidence-based interview training is a major gap in prison-based vocational services. We conducted a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the feasibility and initial effectiveness of Virtual Reality Job Interview Training (VR-JIT) within two prisons. Forty-four male returning citizens…

  • Process of Engaging Community and Scientific Partners in the Development of the CIRCL-Chicago Study Protocol

    Justin D Smith, Allison J Carroll et al.ARTICLEEthnicity & Disease2023

    The proposed research has the potential to improve identification, diagnosis, and control of blood pressure among under-resourced communities by connecting community entities and healthcare organizations in new ways. Faith-based organizations are a trusted voice in African American communities that could be instrumental for eliminating disparities

  • Planning the Implementation of a Multilevel Blood Pressure Control Intervention in Chicago

    Sarah Philbin, Rebecca Johnson et al.ARTICLEEthnicity & Disease2023

    Clinic-level barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of hypertension, such as competing priorities and resource constraints, are exacerbated by community-level stressors. Community members and clinicians agreed that it is important to select implementation strategies that leverage and enhance both community- and clinic-based resources

  • Perspectives of Primary Care Clinicians on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Pediatric Hypertension

    Allison J Carroll, Nivedita Mohanty et al.ARTICLEFamily & Community Health2023

    The purpose of this study was to contextualize the challenges of diagnosing and managing pediatric hypertension (pHTN) in federally qualified health centers. We conducted a survey among primary care clinicians (N = 72) who treat children (3-17 years old) in a national network of health centers. Clinicians reported practices of blood pressure (BP) measurement, barriers to diagnosis and management of pHTN, and use of population health tools. Most c…

  • Multi-sector stakeholder's perceptions of determinants of successful implementation of a pediatric weight management intervention

    Open AccessAlicia Persaud, Inês Castro et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Background: Multi-sector stakeholder engagement is essential in the successful implementation, dissemination, and sustainability of pediatric weight management interventions (PWMI), particularly in low-income settings where sustainability relies on external policies and reimbursement. The objective of this study was to engage stakeholders (1) to inform the creation of the intervention with adaptations needed for a successful PWMI in a primary car…

  • Don't Get Lost in Translation

    Open AccessLauren S Wakschlag, Amy Finlay‐jone et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Translation of developmental science discoveries is impeded by numerous barriers at different stages of the research-to-practice pipeline. Actualization of the vast potential of the developmental sciences to improve children's health and development in the real world is imperative but has not yet been fully realized. In this commentary, we argue that an integrated developmental-implementation sciences framework will result in a translational mind…

  • Virtual Delivery of Therapeutic Assessment

    Raja M David, Allison J Carroll et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality Assessment2022

    The Therapeutic Assessment (TA) model of psychological assessment has grown in use due to the demonstrated benefits to clients. However, to date, there have been no published articles on how conducting TA virtually may impact the process and experience. The COVID-19 global pandemic led to a rapid increase in virtual delivery of psychological services, including assessments. Assessors adapted procedures to ensure that clients were served ethically…

  • Improving Payment for Collaborative Mental Health Care in Primary Care

    Courtney Benjamin Wolk, Carol L Alter et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2021References: 9

    BACKGROUND: There is strong evidence supporting implementation of the Collaborative Care Model within primary care. Fee-for-service payment codes, published by Current Procedural Terminology in 2018, have made collaborative care separately reimbursable for the first time. These codes (ie, 99492-99494) reimburse for time spent per month by any member of the care team engaged in Collaborative Care, including behavioral care managers, primary care p…

  • Translating evidence‐based parenting programs for primary care

    Open AccessCady Berkel, Jenna Rudo‐Stern et al.ARTICLEJournal of Community Psychology2020Cited by: 1References: 27

    AIMS: To translate evidence-based programs (EBP) for a new setting, attention must be given to the characteristics of the intervention and the local setting, as well as evidence that is compelling to decision-makers. This paper describes the history of a partnership and stakeholder recommendations to inform the adaptation of an EBP for primary care. METHODS: We established a community advisory board (CAB) consisting of stakeholders with expertize…

  • Implementation strategies for digital mental health interventions in health care settings

    Open AccessAndrea K Graham, Emily G Lattie et al.ARTICLEAmerican Psychologist2020References: 1

    U.S. health care systems are tasked with alleviating the burden of mental health, but are frequently under-prepared and lack workforce and resource capacity to deliver services to all in need. Digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) can increase access to evidence-based mental health care. However, DMHIs commonly do not fit into the day-to-day activities of the people who engage with them, resulting in a research-to-practice gap for DMHI impl…

  • Implementation Research Methodologies for Achieving Scientific Equity and Health Equity

    Moira C Mcnulty, Justin D Smith et al.ARTICLEEthnicity & Disease2019

    Implementation science has great potential to improve the health of communities and individuals who are not achieving health equity. However, implementation science can exacerbate health disparities if its use is biased toward entities that already have the highest capacities for delivering evidence-based interventions. In this article, we examine several methodologic approaches for conducting implementation research to advance equity both in our…
