Abstract
Evidence briefs and deliberative dialogues aimed at policy-makers and stakeholders appear to be useful, highly regarded, and lead to intentions to act. The present study is an early attempt to develop better understanding about these relatively new strategies to support the use of research evidence in policymaking. Respondents to the survey generally reported strong intentions to act on what they had learned from evidence briefs. Overall, “not concluding with recommendations” and “not aiming for a consensus” were identified as the least helpful features of briefs and dialogues, respectively.
