as reported by the included studies and government's reports. The theory of change framework maps the logical sequence of pathways of causal linkages of an intervention to possible outcomes (White, 2009). In the shorter-term and intermediate-term, as depicted inFig. 1, the programs would enabl...
This systematic literature review aims to provide an overview of the indicators, theory of change and impact pathways of CSA that lead to sustainable development. Using a systematic research method, four stages of PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis...
We propose a theory-driven approach to the design and evaluation of complex interventions by adapting and integrating a programmatic design and evaluation tool, Theory of Change (ToC), into the MRC framework for complex interventions. We provide a guide to what ToC is, how to construct one, an...
Multi-stage phase transformation pathways in MAX phases Researchers present the evidence and mechanism of distinct phase transformation pathways in MAX phases under ion irradiation, providing a new theory and predictive method for phase behavior based on composition, advancing understanding of materials in...
What do you think?Do you recognize the explanation of Snyder’s hope theory? What do you think about the 3 mentioned components that are associated with hope? Can you actually put both pathways thinking and agency thinking into practice? Do you have any tips or comments?
Beside this pathway of agreement change, there is an earlier, compatible one where agreement was initially lost with nominative objects in oblique-subject constructions (DME.II: 3.1, as in Icelandic, Sect. 5.4); differences between the two pathways might appear in contingent and hard to test pre...
Beyond "pathways" and "unidirectionality": on the discontinuity of language transmission and the counterability of grammaticalization Emphasizes sociolinguistic factors--the contexts of grammaticalization--which rarely play a role in the grammaticalization literature. Stresses the need to... RD Janda - ...
where μ is the reduced mass of the corresponding normal mode, g(θ) relates the displacement of the normal mode to a change in r, and R n is expressed in terms of previously defined quantities: Rn=fsns(ns+1)rnp+fpnp(np+1)rnsr2(fsrnp+fprns). (9) We note that η is negative...
This paper argues that theory of change can be used to help stakeholders in agricultural research for development projects collectively agree on problems and visions of success. This helps them feel greater ownership for their project, motivation to achieve outcomes, and understanding of how to do ...
