最近有人呼吁采取务实的措施来评估影响循证实践（EBP）实施过程和结果的因素。实施领导力量表（ILS）是一种简单有效的测量方法，可用于研究或组织发展目的，以评估积极支持有效EBP实施的领导者行为和行动。ILS是在心理健康环境中开发和验证的。本研究验证了ILS因素结构与酒精和其他药物（AOD）使用治疗机构的供应商。参与者是来自三个AOD使用治疗机构的72个工作组的323名服务提供者。采用信度分析和解释性因素分析对ILS的心理测量学特性进行了检验。收敛和判别效度也进行了评估。验证性因素分析表明，良好的拟合假设的一阶和二阶因素结构。内部一致性可靠性非常好。收敛效度和判别效度得到支持。ILS的心理测量学特征、信度和效度在AOD使用治疗机构得到支持。ILS是一个简短而务实的措施，可用于研究和实践，以评估在AOD使用处理机构中实施EBP的领导力。
There have been recent calls for pragmatic measures to assess factors that influence evidence-based practice (EBP) implementation processes and outcomes. The Implementation Leadership Scale (ILS) is a brief and efficient measure that can be used for research or organizational development purposes to assess leader behaviors and actions that actively support effective EBP implementation. The ILS was developed and validated in mental health settings. This study validates the ILS factor structure with providers in alcohol and other drug (AOD) use treatment agencies. Participants were 323 service providers working in 72 workgroups from three AOD use treatment agencies. Confirmatory factor analyses and reliability analyses were conducted to examine the psychometric properties of the ILS. Convergent and discriminant validity were also assessed. Confirmatory factor analyses demonstrated good fit to the hypothesized first and second order factor structure. Internal consistency reliability was excellent. Convergent and discriminant validity was supported. The ILS psychometric characteristics, reliability, and validity were supported in AOD use treatment agencies. The ILS is a brief and pragmatic measure that can be used for research and practice to assess leadership for EBP implementation in AOD use treatment agencies.
