Impact Trial of Helping Educational Leaders Mobilize Evidence (HELM)
This study, called the Impact Trial of Helping Educational Leaders Mobilize Evidence (HELM), is looking at ways to improve how schools put into practice programs that help students with their social, emotional, and behavioral health. It's testing an approach called HELM to see if it helps schools better use Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS), which is a program designed to support students. The study aims to enroll 400 participants, including school districts in Washington State committed to PBIS in elementary schools, and educators within those schools. We'll know if the study is successful by measuring how well PBIS is being used in schools over 12 months. The current recruitment status is unclear.

What this trial measures
- PBIS Fidelity (Tiered Fidelity Inventory)Baseline, 9 months, 12 months
The Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI) is a 45-item tool used to provide a valid, reliable, and efficient measure of the extent to which school personnel are applying the core features of PBIS. The TFI is a group-assessment completed by a schoolwide system planning team with external facilitation with strong internal consistency. The scoring criteria for each individual item ranges from 0-3 (0=Not Implemented, 1=Partially Implemented, 3=Fully Implemented); higher scores indicate better outcome.
