ABSTRACT

Background

Mastery motivational climate (MMC) interventions are an evidence-based approach utilized to deliver motor skill interventions (MSI) for young children. There are 6 environmental characteristics and instructional cues an instructor must appropriately manipulate to implement a MMC. These are known as the TARGET and stand for Task, Authority, Recognition, Grouping, Evaluation, and Time.

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to describe the procedural, educational, and instructional components of intervention fidelity that we believe should be considered in the design, training, delivery, and assessment of a MMC intervention. The design phase should consider the intended intervention exposure and dosage prior to the intervention and develop a plan for implementation and measurement of intervention dose across the study. Conducting effective training for research personnel and developing formal implementation protocols are also important for intervention fidelity. During the intervention it is important to measure adherence to the TARGET structures using a formal checklist. Finally, we find it important to describe the extent to which the intervention was delivered as planned and report how closely we aligned with TARGET adherence throughout intervention implementation.

Findings

The discussion highlights how our increased efforts in our intervention fidelity have enhanced the quality and delivery of our MMC interventions from a pedagogical perspective. Specifically, in how we have used previous fidelity data to inform our future MMC intervention studies. There is more work to be done in MMC intervention fidelity, especially moving towards more teacher implemented MMC studies in the future as well as addressing participant level (i.e. attendance) fidelity concerns.

干预保真度：设计、实施和评估掌握动机氛围行为干预的多种策略

摘要

背景

掌握动机氛围（MMC）干预是一种基于证据的方法，用于为幼儿提供运动技能干预（MSI）。教师必须适当操纵 6 个环境特征和教学线索来实施 MMC。这些被称为目标，代表任务、权威、认可、分组、评估和时间。

目的

本文的目的是描述干预保真度的程序、教育和教学组成部分，我们认为在 MMC 干预的设计、培训、实施和评估中应考虑这些组成部分。设计阶段应考虑干预前的预期干预暴露和剂量，并制定整个研究中干预剂量实施和测量的计划。对研究人员进行有效的培训并制定正式的实施方案对于干预保真度也很重要。在干预期间，重要的是使用正式的检查表来衡量对目标结构的遵守情况。最后，

发现

讨论强调了我们在干预保真度方面加大的努力如何从教学角度提高了 MMC 干预的质量和实施。具体来说，我们如何使用之前的保真度数据来为我们未来的 MMC 干预研究提供信息。在 MMC 干预保真度方面还有更多工作要做，特别是未来更多的教师实施 MMC 研究以及解决参与者水平（即出勤）保真度问题。
