研究表明，如果实施得当，预防规划可以改善社区健康。当地社区有成功预防的例子，但许多社区仍然面临重大挑战，这表明科学与实践之间存在差距。美国国内有解决这一差距的通用策略（例如培训），但缺乏成果。建设社区实施高质量预防的能力可以帮助社区取得积极的健康成果，从而缩小差距。尽管关于循证计划的功效有大量研究，但关于如何提高社区能力以提高预防质量的研究却很少。为了缩小差距，建议采用一种基于社区科学的新研究模式，以提高对社区能力的最新理论理解，并评估旨在增强社区能力的技术。在本文中，我们描述了这个模型，并提出了一个可以改善地方层面成果的研究议程。
Research has shown that prevention programming can improve community health when implemented well. There are examples of successful prevention in local communities, however many continue to face significant challenges, demonstrating a gap between science and practice. Common strategies within the United States to address this gap are available ( e. g., trainings), but lack outcomes. Building community capacity to implement high quality prevention can help communities achieve positive health outcomes, thereby narrowing the gap. While there is ample research on the efficacy of evidence-based programs, there is little on how to improve community capacity to improve prevention quality. In order to narrow the gap, a new model of research - one based in Community Science - is suggested that improves the latest theoretical understanding of community capacity and evaluates technologies designed to enhance it. In this article, we describe this model and suggest a research agenda that can lead to improved outcomes at the local level.
