Increasing dependability of caregiver implementation fidelity estimates in early intervention: A generalizability and decision study.

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
There is an increasing need to measure caregiver implementation of strategies from Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Interventions (NDBIs) as a possible key mediator of outcomes in a child. The NDBI Fidelity (NDBI-Fi) rating scheme is a macro-code to estimate the implementation of core strategies. Yet, there is a need to understand the dependability of this measure to ensure intervention study findings are generalizable to everyday interactions and comparable across studies. We addressed this by evaluating the dependability or consistency of NDBI-Fi scores for 20 caregivers, averaged across observations of two occasions of two routines that were each scored by two raters. Our findings indicated that a single score (i.e. from a single occasion, single routine, and single rater) from the measure has low dependability (
