An online adaptation of the Family Check-Up (FCU), an evidence-based parenting intervention grounded in MI, was developed to increase families' access to evidence-based parenting support. The FCU Online is a digital health intervention that includes evidence-based parenting content delivered via a mobile app and tailored telehealth coaching based in MI principles. In the current study, our goal was to adapt the COACH, an observational tool designed to assess fidelity for the in-person version of the FCU, to fit the online coaching model. Like the original, the adapted COACH assesses different domains of fidelity to the FCU model, including competence in MI skill utilization and adherence to structural aspects of the model. We used the adapted COACH to code a sub-sample of audio-recorded FCU Online coaching sessions (<i>n=</i>134) from a recent randomized controlled trial of the FCU Online for early childhood. Our second aim was to test whether COACH domains assessing MI skills versus other aspects of fidelity were more consistently associated with caregiver intervention engagement. We found that COACH fidelity ratings were associated with caregiver intervention engagement in both the app and coaching, with COACH domains assessing MI skills more consistently associated with engagement. Overall, our findings provide support for the utility of a fidelity coding tool for a flexible, MI-based digital health intervention that can be delivered in educational settings.</p>","PeriodicalId":46759,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation","volume":"36 1","pages":"130-153"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13099231/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147785403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though research on effective SEL implementation coaching strategies is growing, less is known about coaching to support equity-focused SEL. The present study sought to address this gap through an examination of coaching provided in a randomized controlled trial in which schools were assigned to either (a) an active control condition, where they received teacher coaching supports for the implementation of the SEL curriculum, <i>Second Step</i> or (b) an intervention condition where they also received an equity-focused set of lessons as an augmentation to <i>Second Step,</i> plus coaching supports for the implementation of both. The current study aimed to assess fidelity to the coaching models, examine coaching acceptability, and explore teacher engagement in coaching among 106 coached teachers across both conditions. Results indicated that coaching in both conditions was implemented as designed and that intervention condition coaching was distinct from coaching solely focused on SEL. Across both conditions, teacher demographic characteristics were associated with coaching participation, and teachers had positive experiences working with coaches. We conclude with a discussion of implications and recommendations for coaching to optimize implementation of equity-focused SEL.</p>","PeriodicalId":46759,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13021147/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147575946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examined paraeducator feedback on the RUBI in Educational Settings (RUBIES) intervention, an adapted evidence-based behavioral intervention for schools. Sixteen paraeducators who participated in a randomized controlled trial of RUBIES completed semi-structured interviews, providing insights into the program's strengths and areas for improvement. Using the Framework for Reporting Adaptations and Modifications - Expanded (FRAME), feedback was categorized into (a) positive feedback and (b) adaptation suggestions in the areas of (a) content and (b) implementation and scale-up activities. Paraeducators found RUBIES content effective in reducing challenging behaviors and improving student engagement. However, implementation barriers such as scheduling constraints, difficulty accessing materials, and limited coordination with broader educational teams were identified. Recommendations included expanding staff training and integrating digital tools for real-time strategy use and data collection. Findings highlight the need for ongoing monitoring and iterative adaptation of RUBIES implementation strategies in collaboration with community partners to ensure its feasibility and sustainability in school settings. Future research should focus on refining RUBIES and assessing long-term outcomes to enhance the program's impact on paraeducators and autistic students.</p>","PeriodicalId":46759,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12710468/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145783344","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
