Abstract

This paper focuses on the process for adapting existing legacy computerized tailored intervention (CTI) programs and implications for future development of CTI to ensure that interventions can be disseminated and implemented in different settings. A significant amount of work is required to adapt existing CTI for new research applications and public health interventions. Most new CTI are still developed from scratch, with minimal re-use of software or message content, even when there are considerable overlaps in functionality. This is largely a function of the substantial technical, organizational, and content-based barriers to adapting and disseminating CTI. CTI developers should thus consider dissemination and re-use early in the design phase of their systems. This is not intended to be a step-by-step guide on how to adopt or disseminate research-tested CTI, but rather a discussion that highlights issues to be considered for adapting and disseminating evidence-based CTI.
