We present evidence of PIM's capacity for promoting intervention acceptability, drawing on our research experiences in international sexual-risk prevention work. We conclude with a discussion of PIM's potential for bridging the gap between research and practice, addressing cultural diversity, fostering partnerships, promoting disciplined reflective practice, and integrating the multiple roles of the school psychologist. In recent years, researchers and practitioners in the field of school psychology have recognized the need for a broad conception of intervention development and evaluation that addresses intervention acceptability and integrity, in addition to efficacy (Elliott, Witt, & Kratochwill, 1991; Hiralall & Martens, 1998; Nastasi, 1998; Nastasi, Varjas, Bernstein, & Pluymert, 1998a, 1998b; Schill, Kratochwill, & Elliott, 1998).
