Abstract

ABSTRACT Teachers can implement a high quality Daily Report Card (DRC) intervention when they receive face-to-face consultation or interactive online supports. Yet, it is unclear which method is most cost-effective. Using an ingredients-based approach and societal perspective, we examined costs and cost-effectiveness (compared to typical practice) of three implementation strategies (face-to-face standard consultation, face-to-face enhanced consultation, interactive online supports) with 112 elementary school teachers. Teachers received consultation for DRC implementation with one student with or at risk for ADHD. Over 2 months, we collected data on teachers’ implementation and changes in student behaviors. Regarding cost per student, enhanced consultation was the most costly ($864), followed by standard consultation ($634) and interactive online supports ($307). Regarding cost-effectiveness (costs required to achieve the desired effect beyond typical practice), interactive online supports were the most cost-effective followed by enhanced consultation and standard consultation. We discuss implications for research and maximizing outcomes given dollars spent.

日常成绩单干预咨询的成本效益：面对面和在线实施策略的比较

教师在接受面对面咨询或互动式在线支持时，可以实施高质量的每日报告卡(DRC)干预。然而，目前尚不清楚哪种方法最具成本效益。采用基于成分的方法和社会视角，我们对112名小学教师进行了三种实施策略(面对面标准咨询、面对面强化咨询、交互式在线支持)的成本和成本效益(与典型做法相比)进行了研究。教师与一名患有或有患ADHD风险的学生就DRC的实施进行了咨询。在两个多月的时间里，我们收集了教师实施和学生行为变化的数据。就每位学生的费用而言，强化咨询费用最高(864美元)，其次是标准咨询(634美元)和互动在线支持(307美元)。关于成本效益(在典型实践之外达到预期效果所需的成本)，交互式在线支持是最具成本效益的，其次是增强咨询和标准咨询。我们讨论了对研究的影响以及在给定花费的情况下最大化结果。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Educational & Psychological Consultation (JEPC) provides a forum for improving the scientific understanding of consultation and for describing practical strategies to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of consultation services. Consultation is broadly defined as a process that facilitates problem solving for individuals, groups, and organizations. JEPC publishes articles and special thematic issues that describe formal research, evaluate practice, examine the program implementation process, review relevant literature, investigate systems change, discuss salient issues, and carefully document the translation of theory into practice.
