Research Utilization in Taiwan's Family Planning Program

Abstract
This paper deals with why the applied research carried out in the Taiwan family planning program facilitated the planned program of social change — both in the productive integration of research findings into community health education action programs and in the dissemination of these ideas to other Asian countries. A summary of the factors that assisted or hindered research utilization and an analysis of some of the especially favorable factors in the Taiwan situation are presented. The viewpoint presented is that of the Taiwan Provincial Institute of Family Planning Director and his former resident program advisor.
