abstract="Evidence-based psychosocial treatments for the prevention of juvenile delinquency emphasize the importance of a high quality social environment. However the promotion of this approach in real life is somewhat hindered by diffusion-related problems associated with psychosocial innovation. Indeed, communication between researchers, policy makers, clinicians and members of the community is not an easy task. The communication gap between research and practice is an important issue because its failure could compromise the impact of the intervention on youths at risk of juvenile delinquency. The objective of this article is to put forth a conceptual frame-work based on theory of diffusion of innovation specifically geared towards optimizing the cohesion between the scientific, politic and practice worlds.
