We followed the guidelines proposed by Bartholomew, Parcel, Kok and Gottlieb [ 16, 17] in a method referred to as "intervention mapping" (IM), a stepwise approach for the development and subsequent implementation of interventions grounded in theory and empirical data.
Conceptually, this improves the development process and ensures the design and implementation of software is grounded in empiricism.
First, while it was always our intention to follow a descriptive approach to studying implementation [ 16], methods grounded in health policy analysis theory may have been able to provide deeper insights by stating a set of hypotheses to test empirically [ 24].
Furthermore, at the level of mechanistic implementation, a biophysically based neural model grounded in reinforcement learning was also shown to reproduce matching behavior in a baiting task.
However, as we have seen above, not all implementation strategies or policy ambitions are necessarily grounded in evidence.
In the specific case of dengue, knowledge on the pattern of dissemination may contribute towards directing the implementation of preventive measures that are firmly grounded in epidemiology.
This current implementation of the regulations of GM plants is grounded in the concept of 'substantial equivalence' of GM plants and its non-transformed counterparts [10 12].
