探索在严重政治化的政策领域的证据利用，本文认为，建立模型的研究利用提供了充分的理由来概念化的证据和政策关系，在这种情况下。这是因为他们在太高的抽象层次上操作，并且对关联的理解很狭隘。利用英国药物分类政策的最新发展作为案例研究，一个新的“程序模式”（暂定）主张。这突出了政策过程的复杂性和细微差别，以及随之而来的证据使用，据称，这些证据更准确地描述了这一特定情景中的证据和政策关系。
Exploring evidence utilisation in a heavily politicised policy area, this paper suggests that established models of research utilisation provide inadequate grounds to conceptualise the evidence and policy relationship in this context. This is because they operate at too high a level of abstraction and have a narrow understanding of the association. Using recent developments in UK drug classification policy as a case study, a newer ‘processual model’ is (tentatively) advocated. This highlights the complexity and nuance of the policy process and its accompanying use of evidence which, it is claimed, more accurately depicts the evidence and policy relationship in this particular scenario.
