There are many challenges to developing flexible school mental health programs that achieve adequate adherence to treatment protocols. While we must consider how educators and school systems perceive school mental health programs (acceptability and feasibility), to ensure that treatment research and development follow scientific principles, interventions must be implemented as intended. The present study examines issues of feasibility and adherence in a school-based psychosocial treatment program for young adolescents with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Consistent with recommendations from a treatment development team of stakeholders, a multiple-informant questionnaire system was designed to assess treatment adherence. Preliminary data that demonstrate the utility of this method and the role of various informants are presented. We also discuss how treatment procedures could be modified to improve adherence to the key elements of the treatment, and provide recommendations for adding to and modifying multiple-informant questionnaires. |
