Jan 21, 2021 · Research evidence suggests that evaluating different fidelity dimension data can (a) predict student outcomes (e.g., high fidelity across dimensions predicts higher student outcomes; Domitrovich, Gest, Jones, Gill, & DeRousie, 2010), (b) influence decisions about intervention effectiveness (Sanetti & Fallon, 2011), and (c) inform supports for improving fidelity levels (Sanetti & Collier-Meek ...

Moreover, future intervention studies that incorporate improved treatment fidelity measures may be more apt to accurately measure the relation between treatment fidelity and student outcomes. For a field that places a high priority on conducting rigorous research, we believe that it is problematic that fewer than half of the studies reviewed included treatment fidelity data.

ties of fidelity measures and use these measures to examine the relation between treatment fidelity and student outcomes. O’Donnell (2008) describe how fidelity measures were con-structed and both assess and report the reliability and validity of the treatment fidelity data collected (Mowbray et al. 2003;O’Donnell 2008).

University of Virginia Treatment fidelity refers to the extent to which an intervention is implemented as planned. If researchers do not assess and report treatment fidelity, or if treatment fidelity is shown to be low, findings from intervention studies are difficult to interpret, because the intervention may not have been implemented as planned. ...
Perhaps the greatest relevance of treatment fidelity for re-search is related to the validity, or accuracy, of study find-ings. Treatment fidelity data are essential to drawing valid conclusions about the effects of an intervention on depen-dent variables (e.g., student outcomes; see Figure 1). For in-stance, without treatment fidelity data, if stu...
Adequate Inadequate The intervention was effective for study participants. The intervention was ineffective for study participants. Participants’ outcomes improved; it cannot be concluded, however, that intervention was the cause of the improvement. Participants’ outcomes did not improve; no conclusions, however, can be made about intervention effe...
Ms. Romero explained to Mr. Cooper that treatment fidelity means the degree to which an intervention is implemented as planned. She suggested she assess Mr. Cooper’s adherence for repeated reading. Ms. Romero developed a checklist of the critical elements for repeated reading from articles on the intervention. She then observed Mr. Cooper teaching ...

Despite recommendations for treatment fidelity reporting from funding agencies and researchers, past syntheses have found treatment fidelity is frequently unreported (e.g., Swanson, The Journal of Special Education, 47, 3-13, 2011) in educational interventions and fidelity data are seldom used to analyze its relation to student outcomes (O'Donnell, Review of Educational Research, 78(1), 33-84 ...
