43
Diffusion of Innovations
Community level theory that describes the rate at which a new program or activity will spread throughout a group of people.

RE-AIM
97
RE-AIM
Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance: developed to enhance the impact of health promotion interventions by evaluating the dimensions considered most relevant to real-world implementation, such as the capacity to reach underserved populations and to be adopted within diverse settings. Briefly, the reach dimension of the framework refers to the percentage and characteristics of individuals receiving the intervention; effectiveness refers to the impact of the intervention, including anticipated as well as unanticipated outcomes; adoption concerns the percentage and representativeness of settings that adopt the intervention; implementation refers to the consistency and cost of delivering the intervention; and maintenance refers to long-term sustainability at both the setting and individual levels
98
IMB Skills Model
Information, Motivation, Behavioral Skills Model: was developed in Western settings characterized by a more individualistic culture in contrast to the more collectivistic culture of Thailand.
(1) "information" includes relevant knowledge on antiretroviral medications such as appropriate administration, side effects, and drug interactions. Information might be correct or incorrect and can both facilitate and impede adherence. Information can also include broader adherence-related heuristics or theories, e.g., regarding ART and physiologic reactions and outcomes; (2) "motivation" includes both personal and social motivations. Personal motivation includes positive or negative attitudes toward taking antiretroviral medications, perceived benefits or side effects of taking medications, and/or perceived negative effects of nonadherence. Social motivation includes the individual's perceptions of social support from significant others for adherence and his/her desire to comply with others; and (3) "behavioral skills" are both the individual's objective ability to perform necessary adherence-related tasks and his/her perceived self-efficacy for these tasks. Adherence-related tasks include cues to dosing, strategies to minimize side effects, and self-reinforcement for adherence over time and across different situations.
99
PAPM Model (The Precaution Adoption Process Model)
attempts to explain how a person comes to decisions to take action and how he or she translates that decision into action.
Adoption of a new precaution or cessation of a risky behavior requires deliberate steps unlikely to occur outside of conscious awareness.
The PAPM applies mainly to these types of actions, rather than to the gradual development of habitual patterns of behavior, such as exercise and diet, in which health considerations may play some role. However, the PAPM would apply to the initiation of a new exercise program or a new diet. Proponents of the PAPM hypothesize that there are qualitative differences among people, and question whether changes in health behaviors can be described by a single prediction equation
100
CRM Model (Community Readiness Model)
Communities are motivated by the difference between current health situations or behaviors and the desire to reach a goal. Community readiness refers to how prepared the community is to take action to address a particular health issue. There are several stages in community readiness: absence of awareness, denial or resistance, vague awareness, preplanning, preparation, initiation, stabilization, confirmation/expansion, and high level of community ownership.
