Example #1 – The WISE study Feasibility/Piloting 1. Testing procedures 2. Estimating recruitment/retention 3. Determining sample size Development 1. Identifying the evidence base 2. Identifying/developing theory 3. Modelling process and outcomes Evaluation 1. Assessing effectiveness 2. Understanding change process 3. Assessing cost-effectiveness • Wellbeing in Secondary Education Project [WISE] • Existing intervention (Mental Health First Aid) • Pilot trial in 6 schools = feasible • Randomised controlled trial in 25 schools Implementation 1. Dissemination 2. Surveillance and monitoring 3. Long term follow-up
Example #2 – The WHISP study Feasibility/Piloting 1. Testing procedures 2. Estimating recruitment/retention 3. Determining sample size • Wellbeing and Health in Schools Project [WHISP] • Existing delivery = best practice • Theory informed • No evidence of effectiveness • Externally funded research • Understand processes and outcomes • Produce a replicable model for evaluation Development 1. Identifying the evidence base 2. Identifying/developing theory 3. Modelling process and outcomes Evaluation 1. Assessing effectiveness 2. Understanding change process 3. Assessing cost-effectiveness Implementation 1. Dissemination 2. Surveillance and monitoring 3. Long term follow-up
Example #3 - The GMI_ALC study Feasibility/Piloting 1. Testing procedures 2. Estimating recruitment/retention 3. Determining sample size Development 1. Identifying the evidence base 2.

The GMI_ALC study Feasibility/Piloting 1. Testing procedures 2. Estimating recruitment/retention 3. Determining sample size • Developing a GMI intervention • Identifying the evidence base: • Lack of evidence for impact of curriculum approach to health promotion • Competency-focused pedagogy emphasises processes internal to the learner • Group Motivational Interviewing [GMI] facilitates active participation and exploration of personal goals • Emerging evidence for use of GMI with young people Development 1. Identifying the evidence base 2. Identifying/developing theory 3. Modelling process and outcomes Evaluation 1. Assessing effectiveness 2. Understanding change process 3. Assessing cost-effectiveness Implementation 1. Dissemination 2. Surveillance and monitoring 3. Long term follow-up
The GMI_ALC study Feasibility/Piloting 1. Testing procedures 2. Estimating recruitment/retention 3. Determining sample size • Developing a GMI intervention • Identifying/developing theory: • Identify key components of a GMI approach to PSE lessons • Identify key components of a teacher training package • Modelling process and outcomes: • Small scale testing of GMI intervention delivery • Small scale testing of teacher training delivery Development 1. Identifying the evidence base 2. Identifying/developing theory 3. Modelling process and outcomes Evaluation 1. Assessing effectiveness 2. Understanding change process 3. Assessing cost-effectiveness Implementation 1. Dissemination 2. Surveillance and monitoring 3. Long term follow-up
Moving forward to a pilot trial Feasibility/Piloting 1. Testing procedures 2. Estimating recruitment/retention 3. Determining sample size Development 1. Identifying the evidence base 2. Identifying/developing theory 3. Modelling process and outcomes Evaluation 1. Assessing effectiveness 2. Understanding change process 3. Assessing cost-effectiveness • Consultation with stakeholders • Consider results of testing and discuss key queries • Refine training and lesson plan • Identify resources needed to scale-up • Finalise measurement tools Implementation 1. Dissemination 2. Surveillance and monitoring 3. Long term follow-up
