Multiphase Optimization Strategy

Abstract Innovative methodological frameworks are needed in intervention science to increase efficiency, potency, and community adoption of behavioral health interventions, as it currently takes 17 years and millions of dollars to test and disseminate interventions. The multiphase optimization strategy (MOST) for developing behavioral interventions was designed to optimize efficiency, efficacy, and sustainability, while community-based participatory research (CBPR) engages community members in all research steps. Classical approaches for developing behavioral interventions include testing against control interventions in randomized controlled trials. MOST adds an optimization phase to assess performance of individual intervention components and their interactions on outcomes. This information is used to engineer interventions that meet specific optimization criteria focused on effectiveness, cost, or time. Combining CBPR and MOST facilitates development of behavioral interventions that effectively address complex health challenges, are acceptable to communities, and sustainable by maximizing resources, building community capacity and acceptance. Herein, we present a case study to illustrate the value of combining MOST and CBPR to optimize a multilevel intervention for reducing substance misuse among formerly incarcerated men, for under $250 per person. This integration merged experiential and cutting-edge scientific knowledge and methods, built community capacity, and promoted the development of efficient interventions. Integrating CBPR and MOST principles yielded a framework of intervention development/testing that is more efficient, faster, cheaper, and rigorous than traditional stage models. Combining MOST and CBPR addressed significant intervention science gaps and speeds up testing and implementation of interventions.

After reading this chapter you will be able to: define participatory research and its core principles; describe how engaging communities in participatory research and action can add value to research, while building community capacity and helping achieve action to promote community health; identify some of the challenges that arise in such work and how they may be addressed; describe a case study that started with an important issue in the community and demonstrates core principles of community-based participatory research (CBPR), challenges faced in such work, and subsequent community action for change.

This chapter describes the contextual nature of contemporary rural America to provide the background for the case example of a 4-year community-based participatory research project to enhance community capacity building in a rural New England community with a large Latino/Hispanic population. The changing nature of rural populations and implications for rural health care and nursing research are discussed.
