Integrating coaching into digital behavioral interventions: a scalable training model and fidelity evaluation.
Trial report in Annals of behavioral medicine : a publication of the Society of Behavioral Medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05217615 (Parent Training for Parents of Toddlers Born Very Premature), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundDigital interventions offer scalable solutions for program accessibility but face challenges with engagement and adherence. Hybrid delivery models integrating human support through coaching may enhance engagement outcomes, which can improve intervention or clinical outcomes. PURPOSE: This study describes a structured, intervention-agnostic coaching model and associated training procedures designed to reinforce digital intervention content without requiring specialist expertise. It evaluates the feasibility, fidelity, and acceptability of the coaching model, including participant satisfaction.
methodsParents of toddlers born very preterm (n = 113) received digital parent training or health education paired with weekly coaching calls. Eleven coaches from diverse educational backgrounds completed a standardized training protocol. Feasibility was assessed via observations and coach self-report of adherence and competence. Acceptability was evaluated through parent satisfaction surveys. Descriptive analyses summarized fidelity, engagement, and program completion.
resultsCoaches demonstrated high adherence (M = 94.9%) and competence (M = 88.9%) across 266 observed calls, with minimal variance. Parent call engagement was rated high (M = 2.70; 3-point scale). Most parents (75%) attended ≥6 of 11 coaching calls, and 64% completed all 6 digital program modules. Satisfaction was strong, with 93.6% of parents reporting being satisfied or very satisfied, and over 70% felt connected to their coach. Calls were brief (M = 12.9 minutes), supporting feasibility for busy families.
conclusionsAn intervention-agnostic coaching model delivered by non-specialists was feasible and acceptable for parent participants. Development of a standardized coaching manual and testing across additional digital interventions are planned to enhance scalability and replication.
