TL;DR: A1 Introduction to the 8th Annual Conference on the Science of Dissemination and Implementation: Optimizing Personal and Population Health.

TL;DR: Examining leadership in both the outer service system context and inner organizational context in eleven system-wide implementations of the same EBI across two U.S. states and 87 counties found that sustainment was associated with outer context leadership.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on identifying factors that facilitate or impede the implementation of innovation in organizations, and they identify attitudes toward change and transformational leadership as one of the most important factors.

TL;DR: LOCI has been developed to be a feasible and effective approach for organizations to create a positive climate and fertile context for EBP implementation and seeks to cultivate and sustain both effective general and implementation leadership as well as organizational strategies and support that will remain after the study has ended.

TL;DR: The adaptation of a shorter version of the Evidence-based Practice Attitude Scale (EBPAS-50 items) is described, which has adequate psychometric properties both in US and Norwegian samples, hence indicating cross-cultural validity.
