Aug 16, 2017 · An accurate assessment of fidelity, combined with a high degree of fidelity to the intervention, is critical to the reliability, validity, replicability, and scale-up of the results of an intervention research study. However, extant measures of fidelity are infrequently applicable to the program or intervention being studied, and the literature lacks guidance on the specific process of ...

Jan 21, 2021 · TREATMENT FIDELITY IN RESEARCH. 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). For instance, without ...

May 25, 2011 · Abstract. In this commentary, the issue of fidelity assessment is addressed as it relates to Strain and Bovey’s article (2011). Four reasons are provided for measuring fidelity in intervention studies. Measuring fidelity (a) potentially allows investigators to document the findings were not due to the lack of fidelity in a study; (b) presents ...

Nov 6, 2012 · Attention to fidelity measurement has become an important methodological consideration in both research and the implementation of EBPs. Monitoring fidelity can help improve and inform intervention science and delivery. The following two main components of fidelity are frequently measured: adherence and competence.
Intervention fidelity remains an important means of quality assurance in practice settings and in implementation research. Poor fidelity often explains why interventions that perform well in controlled research settings show worse outcomes in practice settings [7, 8]. Reviews of implementation outcome measurement also describe intervention ...
May 29, 2021 · These literature gaps suggest fidelity research is needed in at least three areas: (1) understanding participants’ enactment of intervention activities, particularly for pragmatic trials where enactment is complex and is influenced by numerous contextual and other factors; (2) the practical application of comprehensive fidelity assessment models, and challenges assessing fidelity in ...

To improve integration of fidelity criteria into intervention research, this review paper focuses on three aims: 1) to identify, define, and operationalize the key ingredients and components of intervention fidelity; 2) to identify consistency and uniformity in terms of core characteristics of fidelity; and, 3) to provide a comprehensive fidelity tool that assesses the core ingredients of ...
