The Harris et al.
1
paper in this issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine reports a network analysis of citation patterns among 1877 papers related to secondhand
smoke published between 1965 and 2005. The primary conclusion is that there is not
much crossover citation between discovery research on the physical or health effects of secondhand smoke and delivery research that evaluates interventions to reduce secondhand smoke exposure. The authors suggest
that this low level of cross-citation between these two networks could be slowing
the diffusion of innovation and a lack of cooperation and communication among investigators
doing these two different kinds of work.To read this article in full you will need to make a payment
