Although parent-mediated interventions have shown promise to support feeding problems, research has primarily occurred within randomized controlled trials when delivered by highly trained clinicians in specialty clinics. Thus, the alignment of these approaches within community settings is unclear. To address this limitation, this study explored adaptations to a parent-mediated intervention, Managing Eating Aversions and Limited Variety (i.e. MEAL Plan), to enhance its adoption, implementation, and sustainment within community settings, including factors that may support or hinder its translation. Participants were 14 multidisciplinary providers who attended one of the three workgroups that included semi-structured focus groups regarding the fit of MEAL Plan in their practice setting. Thematic analysis was used to determine emergent themes, which fell into the domains of content, contextual considerations, and training needs. Specific themes included the appropriateness MEAL Plan for autistic and non-autistic children, adaptations to MEAL Plan delivery, billing considerations, agency-level support, and the format of ongoing training and consultation. By proactively responding to these factors, it may be possible to enhance the implementation and sustainability of parent-mediated interventions, including MEAL Plan, within community practices that support autistic children.Lay abstractModerate feeding problems and disruptive mealtime behaviors are common in children with autism spectrum disorder.

By proactively considering and responding to these factors, it may be possible to enhance MEAL Plan so that it is better able to be delivered and sustained within community practices that support autistic children.

Titre : Examining provider decisions around the delivery and adaptation of a parent-mediated intervention within an Early Intervention system Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Katherine PICKARD, Auteur ; Nicole HENDRIX, Auteur ; Karen GUERRA, Auteur ; Natalie BRANE, Auteur ; Nailah ISLAM, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2384-2396 Mots-clés : adaptation autism spectrum disorders Early Intervention system fidelity implementation parent-mediated intervention Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There is growing research aimed at translating parent-mediated interventions into Part C Early Intervention systems to examine the effectiveness and reach of these models. Although research to date suggests that Early Intervention providers deliver parent-mediated intervention near fidelity, current fidelity reporting practices make delivery difficult to discern. Understanding how parent-mediated interventions are delivered and adapted in a more nuanced manner, including fine-grained intervention delivery and adaptation processes, is important and may increase our understanding of how well these models are aligned within Early Intervention systems. The current study examined the delivery of an evidence-based parent-mediated intervention, Project ImPACT, when delivered by Early Intervention providers and examined their intervention fidelity, the decisions they weighed when delivering Project ImPACT, and reported adaptations to Project ImPACT. Results from 24 providers demonstrated, on average, higher fidelity in response to consultative feedback but notable variability across providers. Preliminary qualitative data highlighted that many events arose within sessions that drove providers to augment their delivery of Project ImPACT. Results suggest the importance of carefully examining how and why providers deliver evidence-based interventions within Early Intervention systems, and the impact of these decisions on fidelity metrics and service outcomes.Lay abstractParent-mediated interventions are an evidence-based practice for autism in which providers support caregivers in learning and applying strategies that support their child?s development. Research has begun to study whether parent-mediated interventions can be effectively delivered in Part C Early Intervention systems. This research has been promising; however, it has been difficult to determine how Early Intervention providers deliver and adapt parent-mediated interventions to meet the needs of the families they serve. Examining how parent-mediated interventions are delivered and adapted may help us understand whether parent-mediated interventions are a good fit in these systems. The current study examined the delivery of an evidence-based parent-mediated intervention, Project ImPACT, when delivered by providers within an Early Intervention system. Results from 24 Early Intervention providers demonstrated that, on average, providers delivered Project ImPACT with higher quality during their time in training and consultation. However, there was also variability in how providers delivered Project ImPACT, with some delivering the program inconsistently, some increasing their quality throughout consultation, and others having consistently high-quality delivery. In addition, qualitative data demonstrated that a variety of events arose within Project ImPACT sessions that drove providers to adapt the program. Results suggest the importance of carefully examining how and why providers deliver evidence-based interventions within Early Intervention systems.

However, few studies have examined clinicians’ sustained use of CBT programs after training efforts have ended. The present study is a follow-up to a clinical trial that examined the implementation and treatment outcomes in response to a group CBT program for youth with ASD and co-occurring anxiety (i.e., Facing Your Fears; FYF). This study uses a mixed-methods approach to understand: 1) the percentage of clinicians who continue to use FYF at least four years after being trained in the program (i.e., sustainment); 2) adaptations that have been made to FYF in order to sustain its fit within clinical settings; and 3) factors that influence clinicians’ sustained use of FYF. Method Thirty of 34 clinicians who were initially trained to use FYF responded to a mixed-methods survey asking about their sustained use of the program, adaptations made to FYF, attitudes towards FYF, and perceived barriers to continued FYF use. Results Results demonstrated that a majority of clinicians reported that they continue to use the FYF program. Clinicians described that they continue to use FYF due to their perceptions of the program’s effectiveness, ease of use, and compatibility, but also made a variety of adaptations to FYF. Conclusion Results from the present study help to better understand factors impacting the sustained use of CBT for youth with ASD. They also highlight the importance of proactive efforts within clinical training to plan for intervention adaptation and to consider factors likely to impact program sustainment.

A type 1 hybrid-effectiveness, cluster randomized trial was used to examine the effectiveness of school-based Facing Your Fears compared to usual care. Change in provider cognitive behavior therapy knowledge and treatment fidelity (adherence and provider competence) were also examined. Seventy-seven interdisciplinary school providers across 25 elementary/middle schools were trained via a train-the-trainer approach. Eighty-one students, ages 8?14?years, with autism or suspected autism and anxiety participated. Students who received school-based Facing Your Fears displayed significantly greater reductions in anxiety compared to students in usual care according to caregiver and child report (Screen for Anxiety and Related Emotional Disorders). Significant reductions in total anxiety (p?=?0.012), separation (p?=?0.002), and social anxiety (p?=?0.003) subscales occurred, according to parent report. Student self-report indicated significant reductions on the social anxiety subscales (p?=?0.001). Interdisciplinary school providers demonstrated significantly increased cognitive behavior therapy knowledge following training (p?0.001). Mean adherence and competence ratings were strong. The positive effectiveness and implementation outcomes are encouraging. Training interdisciplinary school providers to deliver school-based Facing Your Fears has the potential to increase access to care for anxious autistic students. Future directions and limitations are discussed. Lay Abstract Autistic youth frequently experience anxiety that can negatively affect them at home, with friends, and at school. Autistic youth have difficulty accessing mental health care, and this is particularly true for youth from traditionally underserved backgrounds. Providing mental health programs in schools may increase access to care for autistic youth with anxiety. The purpose of the study was to train interdisciplinary school providers to deliver school-based Facing Your Fears, a cognitive behavior therapy program for anxiety in autistic youth. Seventy-seven interdisciplinary school providers across 25 elementary/middle schools were trained by their colleagues and members of the research (train-the-trainer approach). Eighty-one students with autism or suspected autism, ages 8?14?years, were randomly assigned to either school-based Facing Your Fears or usual care. Students in school-based Facing Your Fears showed significant reductions in anxiety compared to students in usual care according to caregiver and student report. Other measures involved examining change in provider cognitive behavior therapy knowledge after training and determining how well interdisciplinary school providers were able to deliver school-based Facing Your Fears. Results indicated that interdisciplinary school providers showed significant improvements in cognitive behavior therapy knowledge after training. Interdisciplinary school providers were able to deliver most of school-based Facing Your Fears activities and with good quality. The positive outcomes in this study are encouraging.
