A systematic review of external validity in pediatric integrated primary care trials.
This study used the RE-AIM (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance) framework to conduct a systematic review of external validity reporting in integrated primary care (IPC) interventions for mental health concerns. A literature search was conducted to identify relevant literature from 1998 to 2018 reporting on open, randomized or quasi-randomized trials of IPC interventions that targeted child (ages 0-18 years) psychological symptoms. The authors included 39 publications describing 25 studies in the review. Publications rarely reported indicators of external validity, including the representatives of participants (12%), rate of adoption clinics or providers (16%), cost of implementation (8%), or evidence of maintenance (16%). Few studies also included key pragmatic factors such as cost or organizational change processes related to implementation and maintenance.

Using the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST) framework to test intervention delivery strategies: a study protocol.
Researchers describe a study protocol for a large randomized controlled trial using the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST), a novel framework developed to optimize interventions. They apply this framework to delivery of Family Navigation (FN), an evidence-based care management strategy designed to reduce disparities and improve access to behavioral health services, and test four components related to its implementation. In this paper, they describe how the MOST framework can be used to improve intervention delivery. These methods will be useful for future studies testing intervention delivery strategies and their impact on implementation.

Impacting pediatric primary care: opportunities and challenges for behavioral research in a shifting healthcare landscape.
This commentary discusses the role that behavioral analysts can have in partnership with pediatric medicine. There have been advances, but there has been limited impact for the daily practice of pediatrics. The authors discuss why behavioral pediatrics has failed to gain traction in primary care, describe possible opportunities for an expanded portfolio of research, and identify several examplars from the behavior analytic literature that has influenced pediatric primary care, and make further recommendations for producing influential data.
