Title: ‘A visual traffic light labelling system to present levels of positivity and negativity (green for strong enablers and red for strong barriers), highlighting levels of concern regarding implementation’

What you can expect to learn: I developed an approach that involves grading qualitative data using a visual traffic light labelling system. This system can highlight the levels of positivity, negativity, and implementation concern. It aims to provide rapid actionable information to sponsors, planners, and decision-makers when an intervention takes place in a rapidly changing context.

Presented by:  Dr Jim Smith

Jim is an implementation scientist who has an extensive program of implementation science work conducting implementation science research in both Australia and the UK.  Jim focuses on the speedy translation of research evidence into clinical practice and is passionate about the development of rapid approaches applied to complex system-level and behaviour change research. Jim places primary emphasis on designing interventions with people, not for people by applying his novel methodology that embeds consumer and community involvement
