q3 · i? · causal · r2
Process measures collected from intervention-condition participants at the end of implementation: coach and teacher alliance surveys and 13-item teacher and 12-item parent satisfaction measures (both α = .92). Teacher satisfaction averaged 4.36 (SD = .61) and parent satisfaction 4.28 (SD = .52).
"Both coaches ( M = 4.62 on a 5-point scale) and teachers ( M = 4.94) reported high levels of alliance with one another. Teachers and parents also reported favorable satisfaction ratings."
