Evolving the theory and praxis of knowledge translation through social interaction: A social phenomenological study
Download2009
McWilliam, C., Kothari, A., Leipert, B., Ward-Griffin, C., Forbes, D.
Background: As an inherently human process fraught with subjectivity, dynamic interaction, and change, social interaction knowledge translation (KT) invites implementation scientists to explore what might be learned from adopting the academic tradition of social constructivism and an interpretive...
