Trial Outcomes & Findings for Developing and Testing Implementation Strategies for Evidence-Based Obesity Prevention in Childcare (NCT NCT03075085)

NCT ID: NCT03075085

Last Updated: 2021-09-05

Results Overview

The WISE fidelity measure will be used across the school year. The WISE fidelity instrument is rated on a 1 to 4 scale with 4 representing the highest level of fidelity. Each core component is assessed with 2 items. Average fidelity scores above 3 are considered to reflect adequate fidelity on a component. That is, the 2 items on each fidelity component were averaged; an average of above 3 was considered as having achieved fidelity. We are reporting on the total number of classrooms that achieved fidelity in each condition at the spring (final assessment) for the evidence-based practices of WISE.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From Baseline Up to 8 months

Population: This measure is at the classroom level. Since there are 2 teachers per classroom, the number of classrooms is 18 and 19, respectively. That is, only one teachers per classroom provided data on this outcome. There are multiple classrooms per site, ranging from 1 to 6.

The WISE fidelity measure will be used across the school year. The WISE fidelity instrument is rated on a 1 to 4 scale with 4 representing the highest level of fidelity. Each core component is assessed with 2 items. Average fidelity scores above 3 are considered to reflect adequate fidelity on a component. That is, the 2 items on each fidelity component were averaged; an average of above 3 was considered as having achieved fidelity. We are reporting on the total number of classrooms that achieved fidelity in each condition at the spring (final assessment) for the evidence-based practices of WISE.
