将研究成果付诸实践的研究正在迅速发展,并获得了许多相互竞争的名称(例如,传播、吸收、利用、翻译)和贡献学科。跨学科使用多个术语会对研究成果的交流和应用进展造成障碍。我们试图建立一个描述这一领域的术语清单,以及作者在2006年出版的健康文献中使用这些术语的频率。我们把这个领域称为知识翻译(KT)。描述KT各个方面的术语及其定义是从文献、互联网、报告、教科书和与专家的接触中收集的。我们通过阅读代表多个学科的12种医疗保健期刊,汇编了KT和其他文章的数据库。2006年在这些期刊上发表的所有文章都被归类为KT或非KT。如果可能的话,KT文章(所有的KT)被进一步分类,根据它们是描述了KT项目还是实现(KT应用文章),还是展示了KT的理论基础、模型、工具、方法或技术(KT理论文章)。使用重复阅读检查准确性。定制设计的软件决定了KT术语在分类为KT的文章的标题和摘要中使用的频率。共有2603件物品被鉴定为KT物品,其中581件被鉴定为KT物品。其中201个描述了KT应用,153个包含了KT理论。在收集到的100个KT术语中,有46个被作者用于分类为KT的文章的标题或摘要中。在所有581篇KT文章中,作者使用的8个术语或术语变化对区分KT和非KT文章具有高度的区别(p < 0.001):实施、采用、质量改进、传播、复杂干预(有多个结尾)、实施(在三个词内)研究和复杂干预。更多的KT术语与KT应用文章(n = 13)和KT理论文章(n = 18)相关。我们收集了100个描述KT研究的术语。作者在KT文章的标题和摘要中使用了其中的46个。其中,大约一半的人区分了KT和非KT文章。因此,需要整合和一致使用较少的术语相关的KT研究是显而易见的。
The study of implementing research findings into practice is rapidly growing and has acquired many competing names (e.g., dissemination, uptake, utilization, translation) and contributing disciplines. The use of multiple terms across disciplines pose barriers to communication and progress for applying research findings. We sought to establish an inventory of terms describing this field and how often authors use them in a collection of health literature published in 2006. We refer to this field as knowledge translation (KT). Terms describing aspects of KT and their definitions were collected from literature, the internet, reports, textbooks, and contact with experts. We compiled a database of KT and other articles by reading 12 healthcare journals representing multiple disciplines. All articles published in these journals in 2006 were categorized as being KT or not. The KT articles (all KT) were further categorized, if possible, for whether they described KT projects or implementations (KT application articles), or presented the theoretical basis, models, tools, methods, or techniques of KT (KT theory articles). Accuracy was checked using duplicate reading. Custom designed software determined how often KT terms were used in the titles and abstracts of articles categorized as being KT. A total of 2,603 articles were assessed, and 581 were identified as KT articles. Of these, 201 described KT applications, and 153 included KT theory. Of the 100 KT terms collected, 46 were used by the authors in the titles or abstracts of articles categorized as being KT. For all 581 KT articles, eight terms or term variations used by authors were highly discriminating for separating KT and non-KT articles (p < 0.001): implementation, adoption, quality improvement, dissemination, complex intervention (with multiple endings), implementation (within three words of) research, and complex intervention. More KT terms were associated with KT application articles (n = 13) and KT theory articles (n = 18). We collected 100 terms describing KT research. Authors used 46 of them in titles and abstracts of KT articles. Of these, approximately half discriminated between KT and non-KT articles. Thus, the need for consolidation and consistent use of fewer terms related to KT research is evident.
