Optimizing the Impact of Public-Academic Partnerships in Fostering Policymakers' Use of Research Evidence: Proposal to Test a Conceptual Framework.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Previous research has reported that public-academic partnerships (PAPs) can effectively promote PAP leaders' use of research evidence in improving youth outcomes. However, the existing literature has not yet clarified whether and how PAP leaders' use of research evidence evolves along the PAP life cycle and whether PAP partners' concordant perceptions of usefulness of their PAP has an impact on PAP leaders' use of research evidence. Developing a conceptual framework that recognizes the PAP life cycle and empirically identifying contexts and mechanisms of PAPs that promote PAP leaders' use of research evidence from the PAP life cycle perspective are imperative to guide researchers and policymakers to successfully lead PAPs and foster policymakers' use of research evidence
