- W377679600 abstract "This study aimed to explore researchers' and policy stakeholders'perceptions of the usefulness of public health research for policy, using theexample of maternal health in Ghana. Sixty-nine government decisionmakers,maternal health policy stakeholders and researchers wereinterviewed.Concepts of research were broad. Research was dichotomised into `big',formal research and 'small', applied research such as operations research.'Small research' was highly valued, due to its speedy completion and itsfocus on topics pertinent to service delivery; big research was not alwaysconsidered necessary.Effectiveness research, one type of `big research', was not highly valued.Interviewees tended to feel that 'effective' policies and programmes couldbe designed once there was a thorough understanding of the situation.There was an implicit assumption that as long as these interventions wereimplemented well, they would be effective.Six dimensionso f local applicability/transferabilitwye re identified.T he mostinfluential factors were the ease with which the intervention could beimplemented, the study's congruence with interviewees' previousexperiences and the perceived need for the intervention. Little attention waspaid to study findings. Judgements of an intervention's potentialeffectiveness tended to be based on the ease of implementation orknowledge of similar projects. Adaptation was considered to be crucial,although often conceptualised not as a factor within localapplicability/transferability assessments, but rather a distinct, essential stepin the research use process.This study suggests that the factors of local applicability/transferabilityfrequently cited in the literature do not reflect those considered to be mostimportant by stakeholders in Ghana." @default.
