ABSTRACT The relationship between theory and practice has been handled more rhetorically than empirically. In this article, the dissemination of scientific research to professional groups is examined empirically and conceptually, using a model which represents the key variable sets in this field. Some of the evidence lays new tracks: the particular exchanges between researchers and practitioners, the effects of these exchanges both on practice and on future research.
