Therefore, qualitative and quantitative process evaluation data will be collected in this study, focusing on aspects of intervention implementation, participant experience of receipt of the intervention, and the influence of contextual/setting factors.
The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of the PEAK program with respect to practical implementation, participant reaction, and potential for association with change in participants' evidence based practice (EBP) attitudes, self-efficacy, knowledge and skills, and self-reported behavior.
Post-implementation participants reported higher mean scores for the behaviour intention items ' I plan to perform' (t = −2.339, df = 147.9, p = 0.020); and ' I intend to perform' (t = −2.034, df = 150.5, p = 0.044) for administration of enema (Table 4).
Intervention implementation was evaluated by assessing the reach of the study, how successfully the intervention was implemented, participant satisfaction with implementation materials and intervention delivery, and by measuring participant compliance with the intervention goals.
To learn about implementation capacity participants were asked to describe their mandate, knowledge, and resources for implementing guidelines.
Reports on the study of a low-fat diet on breast cancer would have more appropriately stated that the study was flawed in implementation since participants were unable to maintain a low-fat diet.
At the end of the implementation, the participants answered a question about the similarity between the exercises and real world problems.
Therefore, the present study aimed to examine feasibility, obstacles to implementation and participants' first impressions.
Also, because data were assessed within the implementation project, participants are likely to represent a relatively well informed group.
At the end of the implementation project, participants reported having valued the course taken; they found the change straightforward and comprehensible and the implementation easily applicable.
