This paper, prepared by Peter Craig, Paul Dieppe, Sally Macintyre, Susan Michie, Irwin Nazareth and Mark Petticrew for the Medical Research Council, outlines strategies for the development, implementation and evaluation of complex interventions particularly related to health.
It is designed to support researchers to choose the most appropriate methods, funders to understand the limitations of evaluation design and users to evaluate the evidence based on these methodological and practical constraints.
