quiz #4 Flashcards

Question

what is knowledge synthesis?

Answer 1

contextualization and integration of research findings and individual research studies. - must be reproducible and transparent - strategies must be clear and simple, plan for evaluation

Answer 2

allowing knowledge/information to be spread | -done at the end of a project or throughout the research process if appropriate (when results are ready to be shared)

Answer 3

``` dissemination= make it happen, active process (youtube videos, posters, presentation, packaging specific message for a specific audience diffusion= passive process, user needs to seek the information, unplanned, mediated by peers ```

Answer 4

in the middle is the production outside is refined, disseminated you can pop in and out of the middle, not sequential!

Answer 5

knowledge will be thought up and shared (KD) and then translated through peer reviewed journals, presentations, or meetings (KT)

Answer 6

knowledge creation, tailoring knowledge (knowledge inquiry, synthesis, products/tools) -known as the knowledge funnel

Answer 7

identify problem, review and select knowledge

Answer 8

sustain the knowledge use, make sure it can be used

Answer 9

• Push: ○ someone who goes out of their way to give information to others • Pull: ○ Knowledge users plan and implement strategies to pull knowledge from sources they identify as producing knowledge that is useful to their decision making • Exchange: Includes efforts to bring the researcher and knowledge user communities together through an interactive process either at the end throughout the research project

Answer 10

a process involving an intermediary (eg. Individuals, organizations or resources) at work to make research evidence more accessible for its users whether they be clinicians, policymakers or other decision-makers

Answer 11

Barrier: Any real or perceived concept that interferes with a change intervention Facilitator: Factors that would promote or help implement shared decision-making in clinical practice

Answer 12

Examples of facilitators: Group interaction, positive staff attitudes and beliefs, leadership support, champions etc Examples of barriers: negative staff attitudes and beliefs, limited integration of guideline recommendation into organizational structures and processes

Answer 13

- should be informed by high-quality context specific evidence - Messages should be clear, simple, action-oriented and tailored for each audience - include a plan to evaluate the impact of the chosen approach, including ways to measure success

Answer 14

- Dissemination targets research findings to specific audiences - Dissemination activities should be considered and outlined in a dissemination plan - Researchers should engage knowledge users to craft messages and help disseminate research findings - Collaborative relationships between researchers and knowledge users built on trust and frequent interaction appear to enhance the effectiveness of dissemination and exchange activities - Knowledge brokers, networks, and communities of practice hold promise as innovative ways to disseminate and exchange knowledge - Knowledge exchange, or integrated KT, involves active collaboration and exchange between researchers and knowledge users throughout the research process

Answer 15

-A process to develop a shared perspective, common language and common understanding about the health problem/issue that the team will focus on -A mutually negotiated and agreed upon plan to guide the collaboration including clear roles and responsibilities Including team members with experience in engaging in collaborative research processes -A strategy for ensuring that trusting relationships among team members are maintained and conflicts are resolved appropriately when they arise -Institutional support, including incentives in both academic and knowledge user environments to participate in and recognize IKT as a worthwhile activity

Answer 16

-Integrated knowledge translation also known as collaborative research, action research, participatory research, co-production of knowledge or Mode 2 research Involves researcher/knowledge user collaboration throughout the research process -This approach is most appropriately used to understand and address complex, relevant and timely "real-life health or health system issues that require engagement of multiple stakeholders in both the research and change processes -Potentially more time-consuming, demanding and resource intensive but involving knowledge users as partners in the research process is a strong predictor that the research findings will be used the research project will achieve a greater impact

Answer 17

-education, 5th year experience, can implement, network skills, accountability, mentorship, organizational culture, physical resources, formalized network ability
