Table 1 Study Specific Aims and Hypotheses
From: Using NIATx strategies to implement integrated services in routine care: a study protocol
Aim | Hypotheses |
|---|---|
Specific Aim 1: Relative to wait-list, to determine if NIATx strategies improve implementation fidelity outcomes. | H1: NIATx strategies will produce increased integrated service fidelity at the program level. |
Specific Aim 2: Relative to wait-list, to determine if NIATx strategies improve implementation penetration outcomes. | H2: NIATx strategies will produce increased penetration rates in integrated services, evidenced by proportion of program patients screened, diagnosed and receiving integrated medication and psychosocial services. |
Specific Aim 3: Across entire sample, to evaluate variation in the extent of and fidelity to NIATx strategies. | H3: Programs with more facilitating factors, articulated by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) Index dimensions will be more likely to complete the requisite tasks of the NIATx protocol and do so with greater fidelity. |
