TL;DR: Recommendations of a two-year project group funded by NIH to study how to manageIFs in genetic and genomic research, as well as imaging research are reported, which conclude that researchers have an obligation to address the possibility of discovering IFs in their protocol and communications with the IRB and research participants.

TL;DR: It is suggested that findings that are analytically valid, reveal an established and substantial risk of a serious health condition, and are clinically actionable should generally be offered to consenting contributors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a literature review on the use of evaluation from 1986 to 2005 using Cousins and Leithwood's 1986 framework for categorizing empirical studies of evaluation use conducted since that time.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the relationship between different types of professional development, teachers' instructional practices, and the achievement of students in science and mathematics, and found that examining practice and curriculum development were significantly related to the use of standards-based instructional practices.

TL;DR: This research presents a meta-answers to the challenge of determining the best way to disseminate evaluation findings to potential users in formats that facilitate use of the findings.
