Feasibility Of A Laboratory Model For Evaluating The Use Of An Alternative Response Option In Mitigating Caregiver Treatment Integrity Errors, Jessie K. Weber
Feasibility Of A Laboratory Model For Evaluating The Use Of An Alternative Response Option In Mitigating Caregiver Treatment Integrity Errors, Jessie K. Weber
Theses & Dissertations
The current study assessed the feasibility of a laboratory model designed to evaluate options for mitigating common caregiver errors in the implementation of destructive behavior treatment. We developed a computer-based analogue to caregiver implementation of extinction for attention-maintained destructive behavior; the model included contingencies on both caregiver errors of commission and adherence to the treatment protocol. We also conducted a preliminary investigation of the effects of participant access to alternative activities as a potential strategy for mitigating integrity errors. Participants included 14 MTurk workers or staff in a severe behavior clinic, and individual response patterns revealed distinct sensitivities to the …
The Importance Of Treatment Integrity: Examining The Effect Of Dosage On Intervention Outcomes, Samantha C. Maguire
The Importance Of Treatment Integrity: Examining The Effect Of Dosage On Intervention Outcomes, Samantha C. Maguire
Theses - ALL
Treatment integrity is a critical component to evaluating the impact of interventions (Collier-Meek et al., 2018). However, one frequently underreported and unacknowledged dimension of treatment integrity is intervention dosage. Determining the amount of treatment (i.e., dosage) necessary to produce desired changes is important to increasing our understanding of the impact of an intervention and the development of a more efficient and precise method of organizing and delivering treatments (Codding et al., 2016). Utilizing data (n = 391) from four individual randomized control trials and three clustered randomized control trials, the purpose of the present study was to descriptively examine the …

Greenhalgh et al. used a considerable evidence-base to develop a comprehensive model of implementation of innovations in healthcare organizations [1]. However, these authors did not fully operationalize their model, making it difficult to test formally. The present paper represents a first step in operationalizing Greenhalgh et al.'s model by providing background, rationale, working definitions, and measurement of key constructs.A systematic review of the literature was conducted for key words representing 53 separate sub-constructs from six of the model's broad constructs. Using an iterative process, we reviewed existing measures and utilized or adapted items. Where no one measure was deemed appropriate, …
