  • Conjoint Behavioral Consultation for Students Exhibiting Symptoms of ADHD: Effects at Post-treatment and One-Year Follow-Up
    School Mental Health, 2019
    Co-Authors: Matthew J. Gormley, Susan M. Sheridan, Amanda L. Witte, Lorey A. Wheeler, Samantha R. A. Eastberg, Paul J. Dizona, Katherine C. Cheng
    Abstract:

    Both Behavioral and pharmacological interventions have short-term efficacy for reducing symptomology of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, intervention effects typically dissipate once interventions are removed. Scholars have advocated for a life-course model of intervention to sustain outcomes for students with ADHD. This model of service delivery is collaborative, individually tailored, and responsive to the culture and context of the student. Conjoint Behavioral Consultation (CBC) is a family–school partnership intervention that is consistent with a life-course model and has demonstrated efficacy in the short- and long-term reductions of problem behaviors; however, little is known about the efficacy of CBC for students with ADHD specifically. The present study sought to evaluate the efficacy of CBC for students exhibiting symptoms of ADHD immediately following treatment and 12 month later using data from a larger randomized controlled trial. Results indicated that students in the CBC condition (n = 29) had significantly lower parent ratings of hyperactivity and Behavioral symptoms at post-treatment relative to students in the “business as usual” control condition (n = 16). However, at follow-up, differences were no longer statistically significant. Additionally, although both groups demonstrated significant improvements in teacher-reported attention problems at post-treatment, students in the control group had significantly lower scores at follow-up. Implications for the use of CBC for students with ADHD symptomology and future research directions are discussed.

  • Handbook of Behavioral Interventions in Schools - Behavioral Collaboration and Consultation
    Handbook of Behavioral Interventions in Schools, 2019
    Co-Authors: Matthew J. Gormley, Rachel E. Meisinger, Susan M. Sheridan
    Abstract:

    School Consultation is a service delivery model that increases the potential of school-based interventionists to provide services to children. This is due to Consultation’s indirect nature and emphasis on training consultees. In a consultative model, a consultant (e.g. school psychologist) works with a consultee (e.g. teacher) who will deliver an intervention to a child. The chapter describes the relative advantages of such practices, such as efficiency, improved outcomes for students, enhancement in knowledge of consultees, and fostering of family-school partnerships. The chapter presents a model for Behavioral Consultation, with considerations that should be made in order to enhance the effectiveness of Consultation. In particular, elements of sincerity, trust, communication, and partnership are described. Following, the chapter describes both traditional Behavioral Consultation and conjoint Behavioral Consultation.

  • Conjoint Behavioral Consultation in rural schools: Do student effects maintain after 1 year?
    School psychology (Washington D.C.), 2019
    Co-Authors: Susan M. Sheridan, Amanda L. Witte, Lorey A. Wheeler, Samantha R. A. Eastberg, Paul J. Dizona, Matthew J. Gormley
    Abstract:

    Challenging behavior problems are common in early childhood and, if left untreated, may escalate into more severe and intractable problems in adolescence and early adulthood. This trajectory is of particular importance in rural schools, where disruptive behaviors are more prominent than in urban and suburban schools. Conjoint Behavioral Consultation (CBC) is a family-school partnership intervention with documented efficacy in producing immediate decreases in child problem behaviors and increases in child adaptive behaviors and social skills. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether the immediate effects of CBC maintain over a 1-year follow-up period. Participants at study enrollment were students (N = 267) and their parents, as well as both the students' original (N = 152) and subsequent (N = 135) teachers in 45 Midwest rural schools. At the time of initial study enrollment, students were assigned randomly to an active CBC intervention or "business as usual" control condition. Results demonstrated that immediate effects of parent-rated adaptive and social skills and teacher-rated school problems were maintained at the 1-year follow-up. Additionally, for parent-rated adaptive skills and teacher-rated school problems, improvements during the maintenance phase were statistically equivalent to gains in the control group. However, increases in parent-rated social skills for the control group during the follow-up phase significantly outpaced increases among the CBC group. Implications for use of CBC in rural communities, as well as future research directions, are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).

  • Examining Teacher Use of Praise Taught During Behavioral Consultation: Implementation and Generalization Considerations
    Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation, 2013
    Co-Authors: Gina Coffee, Thomas R. Kratochwill
    Abstract:

    In this study we examined the extent to which teachers implement and generalize a praise intervention learned during Behavioral Consultation. Four elementary teachers and 15 of their students (3–4 per teacher) participated in the study. In each classroom, 1 student was randomly assigned as the Consultation target student, 1 as the generalization target student, and the remaining as nontarget students. Within a randomized multiple baseline across teacher-participants design, data measuring treatment integrity, the Consultation process, teacher intervention behaviors, and student outcomes were collected across 4 conditions: baseline, intervention implementation, generalization prompt, and generalization training. Results indicated that teachers did not consistently implement or generalize the praise intervention as a result of the conditions of the Consultation process. The major limitations of treatment integrity, student selection, and a possible mismatch in teachers' training/philosophy of behavior manag...

  • Treatment Integrity in Behavioral Consultation: Measurement, Promotion, and Outcomes
    International Journal of Behavioral Consultation and Therapy, 2007
    Co-Authors: Lisa M. Hagermoser Sanetti, Thomas R. Kratochwill
    Abstract:

    The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of the current state of research in the area of treatment integrity as it relates to Behavioral Consultation. To this end, four primary topics are discussed. First, a rationale for why treatment integrity is an important professional and methodological concern is presented. Second, conceptualizations of treatment integrity as a dimensional construct and methods for assessing treatment integrity are reviewed. Third, variables hypothesized to moderate treatment integrity and the empirical basis for several strategies to promote treatment integrity are summarized. Finally, the relationship between treatment integrity and outcomes is discussed. Research from related fields that may influence thinking and practice related to treatment integrity within Behavioral Consultation are discussed throughout.

  • Supporting Latinx Student Success via Family–School Partnerships: Preliminary Effects of Conjoint Behavioral Consultation on Student and Parent Outcomes
    Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation, 2017
    Co-Authors: Brandy L. Clarke, Susan M. Sheridan, Amanda L. Witte, Lorey A. Wheeler, Mackenzie S. Sommerhalder, Elizabeth A. Svoboda
    Abstract:

    ABSTRACTLatinx students are the largest ethnic minority school-age population, yet they have some of the lowest reading proficiency levels and highest rates of school dropout and experience significant unmet Behavioral health needs. School-based interventions addressing Behavioral challenges and parent engagement are recommended to support Latinx students. Conjoint Behavioral Consultation is an evidence-based intervention that supports Behavioral improvements and home–school partnerships for students. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of CBC for a subsample of Latinx students enrolled in two large-scale randomized efficacy trials. ANCOVA and t-test analyses revealed generally positive effects for CBC on Latinx student and parent outcomes and parent-teacher relationships. These findings suggest CBC may be a promising school-based intervention addressing gaps in educational and Behavioral health services for Latinx students. Given the small sample size, further research is needed to evalu...

  • impact of a mandatory Behavioral Consultation on seclusion restraint utilization in a psychiatric hospital
    Journal of Behavior Therapy and Experimental Psychiatry, 1998
    Co-Authors: Dennis C. Donat
    Abstract:

    Abstract Despite demonstrations of the utility and cost effectiveness of Behavioral methods for improving care for people with psychiatric impairments, they are seldom employed effectively in inpatient settings. This study evaluated the impact of an administrative procedure to effect a Behavioral Consultation for cases of high seclusion\restraint utilization. Seclusion\restraint use for the 53 cases was reviewed for a time period of 6 months before and 6 months after development of a Behavioral treatment plan resulting from this procedure. The data revealed a 62% reduction in seclusion\restraint use after development of an approved plan. There was also a reversal in serial trend from increasing use during the months prior to plan development to decreasing use during months after plan development. The procedure is described and implications of the results for clinicians and administrators of psychiatric inpatient programs are discussed.

  • The efficacy of conjoint Behavioral Consultation in the home setting: Outcomes and mechanisms in rural communities.
    Journal of school psychology, 2017
    Co-Authors: Susan M. Sheridan, Shannon R. Holmes, Amanda L. Witte, Sonya A. Bhatia, Samantha R. Angell
    Abstract:

    This study reports the results of a randomized controlled trial examining the effect of Conjoint Behavioral Consultation (CBC), a family-school partnership intervention, on children's behaviors, parents' skills, and parent-teacher relationships in rural community and town settings. Participants were 267 children, 267 parents, and 152 teachers in 45 Midwestern schools. Using an Intent to Treat approach and data analyzed within a multilevel modeling framework, CBC yielded promising results for some but not all outcomes. Specifically, children participating in CBC experienced decreases in daily reports of aggressiveness, noncompliance, and temper tantrums; and increases in parent-reported adaptive skills and social skills at a significantly greater pace than those in a control group. Other outcomes (e.g., parent reports of internalizing and externalizing behaviors) suggested a nonsignificant effect at post-test. CBC parents reported using more effective parenting strategies, gaining more competence in their problem-solving practices, and feeling more efficacious for helping their child succeed in school than parents in the control group. Parents participating in CBC also reported significant improvements in the parent-teacher relationship, and the parent-teacher relationship mediated the effect of CBC on children's adaptive skills. Implications for practice in rural communities, study limitations, and directions for future research are discussed.

  • A randomized trial examining the effects of Conjoint Behavioral Consultation in rural schools: Student outcomes and the mediating role of the teacher-parent relationship.
    Journal of school psychology, 2017
    Co-Authors: Susan M. Sheridan, Shannon R. Holmes, Amanda L. Witte, Michael J. Coutts, Amy L. Dent, Gina M. Kunz
    Abstract:

    Abstract The results of a large-scale randomized controlled trial of Conjoint Behavioral Consultation (CBC) on student outcomes and teacher–parent relationships in rural schools are presented. CBC is an indirect service delivery model that addresses concerns shared by teachers and parents about students. In the present study, the intervention was aimed at promoting positive school-related social-Behavioral skills and strengthening teacher–parent relationships in rural schools. Participants were 267 students in grades K-3, their parents, and 152 teachers in 45 Midwest rural schools. Results revealed that, on average, improvement among students whose parents and teachers experienced CBC significantly outpaced that of control students in their teacher-reported school problems and observational measures of their inappropriate (off-task and motor activity) and appropriate (on-task and social interactions) classroom behavior. In addition, teacher responses indicated significantly different rates of improvement in their relationship with parents in favor of the CBC group. Finally, the teacher–parent relationship was found to partially mediate effects of CBC on several student outcomes. Unique contributions of this study, implications of findings for rural students, study limitations and suggestions for future research are discussed.
