The framework project of the Advisory Committee on Cancer Control (ACOCC), National Cancer Institute of Canada (NCIC), was based on the NCIC/ACOCC conceptual framework for bridging the gap between research and action. The project was carried out under the auspices of the Sociobehavioural Cancer Research Network (SCRN) of the NCIC. It focused on 3 research areas of cancer control research: smoking control, palliative care and screening for breast cancer. In this introductory paper, the criteria and methodology used for the framework project are described, the main features of the framework are outlined and the definitions of terms used in the framework are summarized. It was expected that the framework project would lead to a better understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the NCIC/ACOCC conceptual framework. The project was also expected to assist the SCRN in its ongoing efforts to develop and refine an action-oriented research agenda.
加拿大国家癌症研究所（NCIC）癌症控制咨询委员会（ACOCC）的框架项目基于NCIC/ACOCC弥合研究与行动差距的概念框架。该项目在NCIC的社会行为癌症研究网络（SCRN）的主持下开展。它聚焦于癌症控制研究的三个领域：吸烟控制、姑息治疗和乳腺癌筛查。在这篇引言性论文中，描述了框架项目所使用的标准和方法，概述了框架的主要特征，并总结了框架中所用术语的定义。预期该框架项目将使人们更好地理解NCIC/ACOCC概念框架的优缺点。该项目还预期将协助SCRN持续努力制定和完善以行动为导向的研究议程。
