BASIS-T Efficacy Trial
Sponsor: University of Washington
Summary
For the approximately one in five children with social, emotional, and behavioral (SEB) challenges, accessible evidence-based prevention practices (EBPPs) are critical. In the United States, schools are the primary service setting for children's SEB service delivery but EBPPs are rarely adopted or implemented by educators (e.g., teachers) with sufficient fidelity to see effects. Given that individual behavior change is ultimately required for successful implementation, focusing on individual-level processes holds promise as a parsimonious approach to enhance adoption. Beliefs and Attitudes for Successful Implementation in Schools for Teachers (BASIS-T) is a pragmatic, multifaceted pre-implementation strategy targeting volitional and motivational mechanisms of educators' behavior change to enhance implementation and student SEB outcomes. This study protocol describes a hybrid type 3 effectiveness-implementation trial designed to evaluate the main effects, mediators, and moderators of the BASIS-T implementation strategy in the context of Positive Greetings at the Door (PGD), a universal school-based EBPP previously demonstrated to reduce student disruptive behavior and increase academic engagement.

Conditions
Interventions
BASIS-T
BASIS-T is designed to address the behavioral components often missing from standard EBPP training and consultation that relate to motivation prior to receiving EBPP training, and volition after EBPP training. It is an EBPP-agnostic implementation strategy designed to be delivered within the Preparation/Adoption phase, immediately prior to Active Implementation (CITE EPIS). BASIS-T targets behavioral intentions via improvement in attitudes, subjective norms, and self-efficacy.
Attention Control (ACC)
Teachers assigned to the ACC will receive pre- and post-training experiences designed to mirror those received in the BASIS-T condition. These training experiences will be virtual, delivered by the same interventionist, and be approximately the same length as the BASIS-T experiences, but will not contain any of the BASIS-T content or mechanisms of change. The ACC pre-training experience will define, describe, and advocate for EBP implementation in schools. Content will be didactic, as is typical in professional development training for teachers.
