Purpose: Process evaluations generate important data on the extent to which interventions are delivered as intended. However, the tendency to focus only on assessment of pre-specified structural aspects of fidelity has been criticised for paying ...

Normalisation by Evaluation for Type Theory, in Type Theory [PDF]
We develop normalisation by evaluation (NBE) for dependent types based on presheaf categories. Our construction is formulated in the metalanguage of type theory using quotient inductive types.

Translational framework for implementation evaluation and research: a normalisation process theory coding manual for qualitative research and instrument development [PDF]
Background Normalisation Process Theory (NPT) is frequently used to inform qualitative research that aims to explain and evaluate processes that shape late-stage translation of innovations in the organisation and delivery of healthcare.

Coherence and normalisation-by-evaluation for bicategorical cartesian closed structure [PDF]
We present two proofs of coherence for cartesian closed bicategories. Precisely, we show that in the free cartesian closed bicategory on a set of objects there is at most one structural 2-cell between any parallel pair of 1-cells.

Factors influencing normalisation and sustainment of the Birmingham Symptom-specific Obstetric Triage System (BSOTS): a qualitative implementation evaluation study with UK maternity health professionals [PDF]
Background Maternity triage is the emergency portal to access maternity services for pregnant or newly postnatal women experiencing unexpected complications or concerns. Traditionally women were seen in the order in which they attended maternity services
