[Xmca-l] Re: Translating Ideas to Intervention

["Cliff O'Donnell" <cliffo@hawaii.edu>]

Many thanks, Andy. I've appreciated all of your messages, comments,  
and clarifications!
In our work, we try to adhere to the advice of  Price and Behrens  
(2003 , p. 222):

‘‘where no action step is contemplated without questioning about its  
theoretical significance
and no speculation about underlying processes occurs without asking  
about its action
implications."

So the purpose of my question to the XMCA group was to ask about the  
action implications of the ideas they presented.
