BACKGROUND Although important syntheses and theoretical works exist in relation to understanding the organisational factors that facilitate research use, these contributions differ in their scope and object of study as well as their theoretical underpinnings. Therefore, from an exploratory angle, it may be useful to map out the current literature on organisational factors of research use in public health policy-making when revisiting existing theories and frameworks to gain further theoretical insights. METHODS Herein, a scoping review technique and thematic content analysis were used to bring together findings from both synthesised and empirical studies of different types to map out the organisational factors that facilitate research use in public health policy-making. RESULTS A total of 14 reviews and 40 empirical studies were included in the analysis. These were thematically coded and the intra-organisational factors reported as enabling research use were examined. Five main categories of organisational factors that advance research use in policy organisations - (1) individual factors, (2) the management of research integration, (3) organisational systems and infrastructures of research use, (4) institutional structures and rules for policy-making, and (5) organisational characteristics - were derived as well as 18 subcategories and a total of 64 specific factors, where 27 factors were well supported by research. CONCLUSIONS Using a scoping review methodology, the intra-organisational factors influencing research use in policy-making (including individual factors) were systematically mapped and the theories applied in this area of research were assessed. The review findings confirm the importance of an intra-organisational perspective when exploring research use, showing that many organisational factors are critical facilitators of research use but also that many factors and mechanisms are understudied. The synthesis shows a lack of studies on politicians and the need for more theoretically founded research. Despite increased efforts to update the existing evidential and theoretical basis of research use, we still need frameworks that combine different approaches and theories to help us grasp the complex organisational mechanisms that facilitate research use in policy settings.

促进研究在公共卫生政策制定中使用的组织因素：范围界定审查。

背景技术尽管在理解有助于研究用途的组织因素方面存在重要的综合和理论著作，但这些贡献在其研究范围和研究对象以及其理论基础上有所不同。因此，从探索的角度出发，在重新审视现有理论和框架以获取更多理论见解时，规划出有关公共卫生决策研究中使用的组织因素的最新文献可能是有用的。方法在本文中，使用范围界定审查技术和主题内容分析将来自不同类型的综合研究和实证研究的结果汇总在一起，以规划有助于研究在公共卫生政策制定中使用的组织因素。结果分析共包括14条评论和40项实证研究。这些是按主题进行编码的，并且检查了报告为能够进行研究使用的组织内因素。在政策组织中促进研究使用的组织因素的五个主要类别-（1）个人因素；（2）研究整合的管理；（3）研究用途的组织系统和基础设施；（4）政策的制度结构和规则-以及（5）组织特征-以及18个子类别和总共64个特定因素，其中27个因素得到了研究的支持。结论使用范围界定审查方法，系统地绘制了影响决策制定的组织内部因素（包括单个因素），并评估了在该研究领域中应用的理论。审查结果证实了在探索研究用途时组织内部观点的重要性，表明许多组织因素是研究用途的关键促进因素，但许多因素和机制仍未得到充分研究。综合表明缺乏对政治家的研究，并且需要更多理论上有根据的研究。尽管加大了更新现有研究证据和理论基础的力度，但我们仍需要结合不同方法和理论的框架，以帮助我们掌握在政策环境中促进研究使用的复杂组织机制。
