Barriers and Facilitators to Staff's Implementation of Behaviour Support Plans in Community Settings.
Article in Journal of applied research in intellectual disabilities : JARID, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundBehaviour supports plans (BSP), if accurately implemented, have been found to increase skills and decrease behaviours that challenge for individuals with intellectual disabilities. However, skills acquired by staff during trainings on BSPs often fail to transfer into effective implementation. The current study aimed to examine barriers and facilitators to BSP implementation.
methodFocus groups were conducted with four staff teams (n = 21) and semi-structured interviews were carried out with each team's respective team leader (n = 4). Thematic analysis, involving inductive and deductive approaches, was used to analyse the data.
resultsEnvironmental context and resources (e.g., compatibility of environment) and social influences (e.g., level of team communication) were the predominant domains impacting on implementation.
conclusionFindings emphasise the importance of service providers aligning with the core values of positive behaviour support, which acts as a facilitator for effective BSP implementation. These include integral social processes such as collaboration across key stakeholders and person-centred planning.
