Implementation of Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Intervention Strategies: An Examination of Preschool Teachers’ Perceptions
Naturalistic developmental behavioral intervention (NDBI) strategies appear to be well-suited for implementation by preschool teachers of young children ages 3 through 5, yet research exploring NDBI implementation within this specific context is extremely limited. We applied an implementation science framework to examine reported knowledge, frequency of use, and social validity perceptions of NDBI to support implementation within preschool classrooms. We surveyed 152 preschool teachers and compared ratings of general and special educators to understand their knowledge and use of NDBI strategies. We also compared ratings of preschool teachers with and without higher education training in applied behavior analysis. Findings indicate that NDBI strategies are a usable innovation for preschool teachers, yet targeted preservice and inservice training is warranted along with improved organizational factors to support NDBI uptake. Furthermore, open-ended survey responses provided a deeper understanding of social validity ratings and suggestions for NDBI-focused professional development.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Early Intervention (JEI) publishes articles related to research and practice in early intervention for infants and young children with special needs and their families. Early intervention is defined broadly as procedures that facilitate the development of infants and young children who have special needs or who are at risk for developmental disabilities. The childhood years in which early intervention might occur begin at birth, or before birth for some prevention programs, and extend through the years in which children traditionally begin elementary school.
