Network analysis of RE-AIM framework: chronology of the field and the connectivity of its contributors

  • Systematic Reviews

Translational Behavioral Medicine

Abstract

The reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance (RE-AIM) framework has been widely used for translational research. We used social network analysis (SNA) to explore how innovative research frameworks, such as RE-AIM, have diffused over time in academic literature. A structured literature review was conducted on RE-AIM between 1999 and 2012. SNA indices of degree score, betweenness, centrality, and authorship ties were used to examine use of RE-AIM. Use of RE-AIM has grown since its inception and spread from a few research centers to use internationally. Investigation of co-authorship revealed many have published on RE-AIM, but a much smaller core of RE-AIM researchers have published together two or more times. SNA revealed how the RE-AIM framework has been used over time and identified areas to further expand use of the framework. SNA can be useful to understand how research frameworks diffuse over time.

Additional information

Implications

Practice: Social network analysis is an innovative methodology that can be used to visually demonstrate the spread of knowledge and dissemination of information in practice-based research networks.

Policy: Social network analysis, using the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance (RE-AIM) framework as the example, is an operative mechanism to translate effective interventions into practice and policy.

Research: Methods such as social network analysis are needed to address the gap between research-based interventions and their subsequent use in practice.
