Interpretation of Update on Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR 2.0)

The Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) is a commonly used theoretical framework in the field of implementation science, which helps researchers identify potential and actual influencing factors of the progress and effectiveness of implementation. CFIR was firstly proposed in 2009 with a 13-year history of development. In 2022, the CFIR development team updated CFIR based on user feedback, adding 21 constructs and 19 subconstructs to the original framework structure, adjusting some of the constructs and redefining certain concepts, resulted in CFIR 2.0 which is more practical and general. This paper aims to provide a reference for domestic researchers to understand and use CFIR 2.0 by reviewing and introducing the development background, origin, and update content of CFIR.
