The Effects of Training and Consultation Conditions on Teachers’ Self-Reported Likelihood of Adoption of a Daily Report Card

Abstract Details

2013, Master of Science (MS), Ohio University, Clinical Psychology (Arts and Sciences).
School-based interventions for students with Disruptive Behavior Disorders (DBDs) are available, but are often not adopted. This study examines the relative effects of four training and consultation conditions (TCC) on teachers’ self-reported ratings and rankings of the likelihood of adoption of an intervention for students with DBDs. Teacher factors, including gender, teacher experience, and teacher burnout are evaluated as predictors of adoption ratings. Teachers (N = 157) read descriptions of a boy with symptoms typical of DBDs, a daily report card (DRC) intervention, and four TCCs (consultation with key opinion leaders, consultation with observation and performance feedback, consultation with motivational interviewing, TCC as usual). Consultation with key opinion leaders was rated more highly than consultation with motivational interviewing or TCC as usual, and ranked higher than all other conditions. Women with fewer years of teaching experience reported a higher adoption likelihood rating for the key opinion leader condition than did men and those with more experience. Teachers with a higher sense of personal accomplishment and fewer years of teaching experience rated the observation and performance feedback condition more highly than those low in personal accomplishment or with more experience. Implications and recommendations regarding the use of TCCs and future studies are discussed.
