PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: up to 9 weeksPopulation: Team stopped collecting this survey after 3 responses as it was determined to be burdensome for the participant and not useful for the investigation.
Adherence is measured using the Parenting Inside Out (PIO) Group Observation Feedback Form to assess program integrity and fidelity to the model. This is a 35-item survey that assesses 5 domains: curriculum delivery and fidelity; facilitation skills, behavior support and group management; interpersonal skills, and PIO specific items. Each item is scored on a scale of 1-5 where 1 is remediation needed, 2 is growth area, 3 is developing, 4 is effective, and 5 is highly effective. Average scores from each domain are reported for a total possible range of scores 1-5, higher scores indicate better adherence.
