Jan 21, 2021 · Perhaps the greatest relevance of treatment fidelity for research is related to the validity, or accuracy, of study findings. Treatment fidelity data are essential to drawing valid conclusions about the effects of an intervention on dependent variables (e.g., student outcomes; see Figure 1).

Researchers have suggested that using fidelity data to analytically examine treatment effects provides an important pathway for understanding the hypothesized relations between fidelity and student outcomes (Mowbray et al. 2003; Zvoch 2012).

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 ...

Feb 1, 2021 · In this article, our aim is to inform research consumers by discussing treatment fidelity and its primary dimensions, providing guidelines for interpreting treatment fidelity, considering implications of treatment fidelity for research and practice, and illustrating how fidelity is reported in two recent studies.
Jun 24, 2019 · Findings revealed that treatment fidelity estimates, in addition to being different across assessment method, are, in fact, different depending on the intervention steps assessed, intervention sessions accounted for, and observation timing.

Mar 18, 2011 · Treatment fidelity consists of two general components: a) treatment integrity, the degree to which a treatment is implemented as intended, and b) treatment differentiation, the degree to which two or more study arms differ along critical dimensions (2-5).
