Bringing Knowledge to Action in the Context of a Major Organizational Transition
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the context of organizational transitions in health care institutions, the decisions taken by leaders and clinicians are informed by multiple sources and by a multitude of actors at all levels of the organization. A study was conducted in the context of a major organizational transition at the McGill University Health Centre in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The purpose was to examine the body of literature around the notions of "evidence" in decision-making processes in health care. Key informants who had a strategic decision-making role linked to the transition activities were interviewed to explore their perceptions of the types of evidence used to support changes in the organization. Results revealed that managers and clinicians relied on multiple sources of evidence and shared similar concerns about reliability and validity of scant evidence.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
