各国政府和其他公共卫生机构对循证政策和实践越来越感兴趣。将研究证据转化为方案变化已被证明具有挑战性，围绕如何有效地促进和促进这一进程的证据仍然相对有限。本文介绍了维多利亚州人类服务部委托进行的一系列循证健康促进资源评估的结果。评价采用了定性方法，以探讨资源所针对的从业人员如何看待和使用这些资源。进行了文件和文献审查和分析，以及一系列关键的知情人访谈和焦点小组调查结果清楚地表明，除非资源与包括从业人员参与在内的知识管理过程挂钩，否则它们不太可能成为变革的推动者。本文还考虑了知识经纪人在帮助确定证据并将其转化为实践方面的潜在作用。
Governments and other public health agencies have become increasingly interested in evidence-informed policy and practice. Translating research evidence into programmatic change has proved challenging and the evidence around how to effectively promote and facilitate this process is still relatively limited This paper presents the findings from an evaluation of a series of evidencebased health promotion resources commissioned by the Victorian Department of Human Services. The evaluation used qualitative methods to explore how practitioners for whom the resources were intended, viewed and used them. Document and literature review and analysis, and a series of key informant interviews and focus groups were conducted The findings clearly demonstrate that the resources are unlikely to act as agents for change unless they are linked to a knowledge management process that includes practitioner engagement. This paper also considers the potential role of knowledge brokers in helping to identify and translate evidence into practice.
