Sep 16, 2016 · Fidelity (n.): faithfulness to a person, cause, or belief, demonstrated by continuing loyalty and support. For us, in education, we can extrapolate that to mean faithfulness to, loyalty for and support of your core curriculum. It means exercising your judgement by making professional decisions as you teach the core curriculum.

The Field Guide describes a sequential five-step process displayed in Fig. 1. The steps are: 1. 1. defining the purpose and scope of the fidelity assessment used for evaluation of the intervention; 2. 2. identifying the essential components of the fidelity monitoring system; 3. 3. developing the fidelity tool; 4. 4. monitoring fidelity during the s...
Inter-rater Reliability
The same two raters were used consistently across sessions. This is a fully crossed design (Shrout & Fleiss, 1979) and Cohen’s kappa was used to calculate kappa. A kappa score was calculated for each session because each session had a different content measure. The kappa values ranged from 0.44 to 0.97 with all but one session scoring over 0.65—an indication that inter rater reliability was in the good or substantial range (Altman, 1991; Landis & Koch, 1977). For the process scores a two-way...
Fidelity Score in Analyses
This project has data on content fidelity, process fidelity and dose, all of which can be included as moderators in the analyses. The average content delivered across sessions was 77.2% and the average process score was 7.56 out of a possible score of 10. This means that, on average, about 77% of the content was delivered and that the practitioners followed the PTP process model about 75% of the time.
Dose in Analyses
Dose was used as a continuous independent variable to understand the relationship between the number of sessions completed and the parent and child outcomes.
Understanding and replicating the circumstances in which an intervention resulted in successful outcomes for clients or patients is critical to replicating the positive outcomes and delivering effective services to clients (Miller & Rollnick, 2014). More transparent and consistent systems of assessing and monitoring fidelity, that are developed usi...
For administrators and practitioners, information about the assessment of fidelity should be scrutinized as carefully as the results of the intervention. To achieve the positive results for clients in usual care that were demonstrated in a research study, monitoring and maintaining fidelity must be built into the estimated cost of delivering the in...
The Field Guide system has a few limitations, as do the measures that were developed for the study. The PTP materials include detailed information about the intended process and content of the intervention in the training and manuals. This provided a good starting point and direction from which to develop the intervention measurement tool. However,...

Journal category (i.e., education, psychology, or other) was not statistically significantly associated with treatment fidelity reporting, X 2 (1, k = 175) = 4.09, p = .13, though descriptive data showed studies with a primary journal category of education had a higher percentage of studies presenting treatment fidelity (52%) than studies published in journals with psychology listed as the ...

Jan 21, 2021 · For example, poor fidelity frequently is evident across each tier in multitiered systems of support (MTSS), as well as in special education, and treatment fidelity has been noted as constituting the biggest hurdle to reaching the full potential of MTSS (Noell & Gansle, 2006). Treatment fidelity may be especially critical when teaching students with disabilities, as students with disabilities ...

Feb 2, 2018 · Although implementation fidelity (IF) is an important factor in interpreting the outcomes of intervention programs, so far there is little knowledge about how it actually relates to them. The purpose of this systematic review was to identify which component of IF (adherence, quality of the intervention, exposure to the intervention and receptiveness) is the most important one for attaining the ...
