May 29, 2021 · Fidelity is particularly important and challenging in complex interventions where there are multiple interacting components compared to less complex interventions and where multiple actors may further complicate measurement of fidelity (e.g. in the event that different stakeholder or rater assessments of fidelity differ) .

Nov 6, 2012 · In complex behavioral interventions, fidelity assessment plays an important role as a feedback mechanism for key implementation processes. For example, fidelity assessment can provide information to (a) improve interventionists’ performance through ongoing coaching and supervision, (b) inform interventionist selection requirements, and (c) guide improvements in training.
Nov 6, 2019 · To measure fidelity and engagement effectively, high‐quality measures are needed. We outline a five‐step method which can be used to develop quality measures of fidelity and engagement for complex health interventions. We provide examples from a fidelity study conducted within an evaluation of an intervention aimed to increase independence ...

The construct of ‘intervention fidelity’ originated from concerns about the ‘treatment integrity’ of psychotherapeutic interventions expressed in the 1980s and 1990s.4–6 The monitoring, measurement and assessment of intervention fidelity is important as it has been demonstrated that fidelity is a mediator of study outcomes.7–10 The analysis of intervention fidelity can provide ...

Fidelity is not straightforward in relation to complex interventions. 30 In some evaluations, such as those seeking to identify active ingredients within a complex intervention, strict standardisation may be required and controls put in place to limit variation in implementation. 31 But some interventions are designed to be adapted to local circumstances.
Mar 12, 2020 · For evaluating the implementation of behavioural interventions into real-world contexts, it is also important to consider fidelity in terms of enhancing and assessing fidelity to the original intervention to minimise dilution of effects while achieving a balancing to enable appropriate adaptation for local context (McCrabb et al., Citation 2019; McHugh, Murray, & Barlow, Citation 2009), as ...

May 29, 2021 · Background: Fidelity in complex behavioural interventions is underexplored and few comprehensive or detailed fidelity studies report on specific procedures for monitoring fidelity. Using Bellg's popular Treatment Fidelity model, this paper aims to increase understanding of how to practically and comprehensively assess fidelity in complex, group ...
