Table 1 CFIR constructs for the UPSIDES study context

CFIR Domain 1 Intervention characteristics

This domain focuses on key attributes of an intervention which can facilitate or hinder the implementation process. Crucial key attributes for implementation are the benefits of an intervention (Construct: Relative Advantages). In our study, we report key informants’ views on the benefits of UPSIDES.

CFIR Domain 2 Outer setting

This domain focuses on the context surrounding an organisation. Outer Setting includes resource availability or political influences which can hinder or facilitate an implementation process (Constructs: External Policies and Incentives, Resource Availability). In our study, we report external factors influencing the implementation of UPSIDES in different settings.

CFIR Domain 3 Inner setting

This domain focuses on all processes and circumstances which can be found within an organisation. This includes norms, values and basic assumptions of a given organisation (Construct: Organisational Culture) or the support of the organisation for the intervention (Construct: Implementation Climate). In our study, we report key informants’ views on organisational culture and implementation climate.

CFIR Domain 4 Individuals involved

Different stakeholder groups and their specific characteristics and attitudes towards the intervention can hinder or facilitate an implementation process (Construct: Knowledge and Beliefs about the Intervention). For the implementation of UPSIDES SUs, PSWs and MHWs are the most important stakeholders. In our study, we report key informants’ expectations on the attitude of these stakeholders towards UPSIDES as well as experiences with stakeholder groups during the implementation process.

CFIR Domain 5 Implementation process

This domain describes activities which are connected to change processes during an implementation, e.g., engagement of stakeholders (Construct Engaging, Opinion Leaders). In our study, we report key informants view on training and education for PSWs and MHWs.
