• Evidence-based public health: a fundamental concept for public health practice. (2009, background): “Although numerous authors have written about the role of context in informing evidence-based practice (32, 60, 77, 90, 92, 93, 140, 141), there is little consensus on its definition.”
• Advances in Treatment Integrity Research: Multidisciplinary Perspectives on the Conceptualization, Measurement, and Enhancement of Treatment Integrity (2009, neutral): “…that in many in stances, adaptations or modifications of an intervention occur when there is a lack of cul tural congruence between the intervention and the target population of the intervention (Backer, 2002; Castro, Barrera, & Martinez, 2004; Ringwalt, Vincus, Ennett, Johnson, & Rohrbach, 2004).”
• Evaluating the Relevance, Generalization, and Applicability of Research (2006, background): “... of the Fighting Back community programs in substance abuse prevention; Green & Kreuter, 2002); however, we suggest that the solution may lie in the specification and documentation of (a) a limited set of key components or principles of an evidence-based program (Ory, Evashwick, Glasgow, & Sharke”
• Best Practice Guidelines on Prevention Practice, Research, Training, and Social Advocacy for Psychologists (2007, background): “In determining adaptations, experts recommend, however, that efforts be made to preserve integrity in core program elements and that program strength and dosage be sustained (Castro et al., 2004; Greenberg et al., 2003; Kumpfer et al., 2002).”
• Making the Case for Selective and Directed Cultural Adaptations of Evidence-Based Treatments: Examples From Parent Training (2006, background): “It is conceivable that well-intentioned adaptation efforts that are not informed by data may fall into a category of being “culturally appealing” but scientifically indefensible (Castro et al., 2004).”
• Making sense of complexity in context and implementation: the Context and Implementation of Complex Interventions (CICI) framework (2017, background): “The epidemiological context refers to the distribution of diseases or conditions, the attributable burden of disease, as well as determinants of needs in populations [5], including demographics [70, 71].”
