![Page 9: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Autism Mystique
• Probably more than any disability, or unique set of abilities, autism has been shrouded in a treatment mystique
• The etiology has gone from refrigerator mothers to epigenetics
• Treatments are more diverse than any known disabilities
• Treatment claims range from amelioration to recovery

Understanding Intervention Approaches for Learners with ASD
Focused Intervention Practices
• Shorter in duration
• Target discrete skills
• Represent the bulk of the evidence-base in the ASD literature
Comprehensive Treatment Models
• Longer in duration
• Target multiple developmental domains
• At least 30 CTMs & a dearth of empirical evidence for most (Odom, Boyd, Hall, Hume, 2010)
![Page 17: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Comprehensive Treatment Strategies
• Multiple components (e.g., child-focused instruction, family-focused support)
• Broad scope (i.e., they may address several developmental domain or skill areas)
• Intensity (i.e., they often occur over an entire instructional day or in multiple settings such as a school/clinic and home)
• Longevity (i.e., they may occur over months or even years).
![Page 18: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Review of CTMs
• 10 identified by National Academy of Science Committee (2002)
• 30 found in review and evaluation in 2010 (Odom, Boyd, Hall, & Hume, 2010)
• Relative Strong Models– Denver Model (Early Start Denver Model)– LEAP– Lovaas Institute– May Institute– Princeton Child Development Institute– Pivotal Response Treatment
• Efficacy studies lacking (Odom, Boyd, Hall, & Hume, 2014)

Evidence-Based Practices
![Page 20: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Evidence-Based Medicine
The integration of the best available research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values.
(Sackett et al., 2000)
![Page 21: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Evidence-Based Practice (EBP)
…a decision-making process that integrates the best available research evidence with family & professional wisdom & values (Buysse & Wesley, 2006; Snyder, 2006; Winton, 2006)
![Page 22: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Evidence-Based Practices
(Buysse, Wesley, Winton, 2007)

What Counts as Evidence?
![Page 24: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
What Counts As Evidence?
• Peer-reviewed, refereed journal articles
• Methodologies
– Experimental Group Designs
– Quasi experimental designs
– Single subject designs
![Page 25: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
For Article to Be Acceptable
• For Group Design
– Met criteria established by Gersten, Fuchs, Compton, Coyne, Greenwood, & Innocenti (2005)
• For Single Case Design
– Met criteria established by Horner, Carr, Halle, McGee, Odom, & Wolery (2005)
![Page 26: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Single Case Design
• A case may be a student, classroom, school, or district—but usually a student
• Single case design studies are experiments in which the researcher manipulates that independent variable and observes the effect on the dependent variable.
• Single case designs are nearly always within subjects designs in which the subject serves as his/her own control
![Page 27: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Single Case Design
• Single case designs require replication of treatment effects at least three times during the study (which is called experimental control)
• The methodology of single case design eliminate nearly all threats to internal validity
• Primarily two types of single case designs:
– Withdrawal of treatment
– Multiple baseline across subjects

Eclecticism and Lessons Learned from Clinical Psychology
• Movement to Empirically Supported Treatments in 1990s
• Gilliard, James, & Bowman (1994) discuss the need for an eclectic approach
• Different forms of eclecticism exists– Unsystematic eclecticism: “a jack-of-all-trades-master-of-
none approach” (Gilliland et al.,1994, p. 554)
– Technical eclecticism: selection of empirically supported treatments from different theoretical perspectives for use with an individual client (Lazarus & Beutler, 1993)
![Page 42: The Tie That Binds Intervention Research to Practice for ... · Implementation Science Research (Fixsen et al, 2005) •Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022050106/5f44bda731ea354492657a78/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Stahmer, Schriebman, & Cunningham (2011)
• Propose a technology of treatment individualization based on – Child Characteristics– Family Characteristics– Service Setting and System
• Premise: no single treatment works for all children.– Some evidence that non-ABA treatments
have positive effects

A Technical Eclectic Approach
• Important to have a conceptual framework or theory of change
• Necessary to have a proscribed (manualized) system of assessment, treatment selection, and evaluation
• Necessary to stay close to the science in selecting interventions

Implementation: The Tie That Binds
• “…of what a program consists when it is delivered in a particular setting” (Durlak & DuPre, 2008)
• “…a specified set of activities designed to put into practice a … program of known dimensions, (Fixsen, et al., 2005)
• “…program delivered to and experienced by participants… and their families (Odom, Hanson, Lieber, Butera, et al., 2008)

Implementation Science Research(Fixsen et al, 2005)
• Implementation research: scientific study of methods to promote use of research to reduce inappropriate care.
• Includes study of interventions to enable professionals to use research findings effectively
• Quality of replication – fidelity - critical to successful outcomes. Low quality implementation unlikely to generate good outcomes

What Affects Implementation?
• Design of materials
• Match between intervention and teacher philosophy
• Professional development and technical assistance
• Administrative support
