A closer look at the education journals revealed that the type of education journal (i.e., special or general education) was statistically significantly related to treatment fidelity reporting, X 2 (1, k = 122) = 6.23, p < .05, with journals identified primarily as special education journals reporting treatment fidelity at a higher rate (63%) than general education journals (40%).

A recent paper that detailed the development and testing of a measure of Fidelity of Implementation (FOI) in four settings concluded that “FOI is an important but complex phenomenon that can be difficult to measure.” Indeed, Century and colleagues note that “evaluators, have yet to develop a shared conceptual understanding of what FOI is and how t...
Our results suggest three guidelines for improving methodological rigour in fidelity assessment. Guideline M1: Use multiple methods of fidelity assessment and build redundancy into assessment of aspects of fidelity that are under participants’ control (receipt and enactment). Few studies use multiple methods for measuring each aspect of fidelity (...
It is evident from the guidelines suggested above that rigorous assessment of intervention fidelity can quickly become an additional, resource intensive ‘study within a study’. In their systematic review of actual measures used to monitor fidelity delivery, receipt, and enactment in complex interventions, Walton and colleagues identified the high ...
