Reflections on International Translation of Evidence-Based Health Behavior Programs

Steve Sussman

University of Southern California

Lawrence A. Palinkas

University of Southern California

In this concluding article, the authors describe factors that influence the international translation of programs. These include language, control over the translation process, local normative challenges to translation, program adaptation, and globalization. The authors suggest that systematic efforts at language translation, program adaptation partnership, and compromise are general principals needed to surmount these challenges.

Key Words: challenges • international translation • evidence-based programming
