Reviews"This book comes at an appropriate time when professionals are searching for effective ways to translate and implement evidence-based practices. Although this is a book on social work research methods, several concepts and methods are applicable across disciplines. A major strength of the book is that it not only covers the important concepts and methods in conducting translational research, but also captures the latest developments in models, methods, and datasourcesEL In summary, this is a useful and most timely book that comprehensively explores the concepts, methods, process, and outcomes of the translation and implementation of evidence-basedpractices." -- Junqing Liu, National Committee for Quality Assurance, University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD, USA, International Journal of Social Welfare, In this book, Lawrence A. Palinkas and Haluk Soydan address a relatively new but important topic in social work: conducting research on the translation and implementation of evidence based practices. As a social work research method guide, the book provides students, practitioners, and researchers with a solid foundation for understanding the methods, infrastructures, and challenges in conducting translational research. The case studies introduced throughout the book effectivelyillustrate the focus and methods of translational research a useful and most timely book that comprehensively explores the concepts, methods, process, and outcomes of the translation and implementation of evidence based practices., "This book comes at an appropriate time when professionals are searching for effective ways to translate and implement evidence-based practices.

SynopsisThis book fills a gap in social work writing by describing the challenges of investigating the process and outcomes of efforts to translate and implement evidence-based practices in social work. Decision-makers in social service agencies and policy settings, in addition to professors and master's- and doctoral-level students, will all want to read this vital and informative book that brings core issues of research and practice to life., It is one thing to do social work research, but quite another to disseminate the results and ensure their effective utilization by practitioners out in the field working with clients. Just as important is ensuring that the research is relevant and usable by the social and health service community. Implementation research and translational research are designed to develop effective methods for narrowing the gap between research and practice.Using the National Institutes of Health Roadmap as a guide, this book fills a gap in social work writing by describing the challenges of investigating the process and outcomes of efforts to translate and implement evidence-based practices in social work. A general introduction discusses the history of such efforts and a picture of where we are now. Subsequent chapters offer in-depth examinations of the methods for studying the effectiveness, dissemination, and implementation of evidence-based practices; discuss the organizational context in which these activities occur in social work practice; investigate the use of mixed-method designs and community-based participatory methods to address these challenges; provide case studies of research on translation and implementation; and identify potential barriers and offer recommendations and guidelines for addressing them.The resulting strategy is founded on the principle and practice of cultural exchange between members of social worker-led interdisciplinary research teams, and between researchers and practitioners.
