Intervention Selection in School-Based Practice: Using Public Health Models to Enhance Systems Capacity of Schools
Abstract
Recent federal initiatives and efforts within education and psychology professional organizations have contributed to an increased focus on scientifically based practices in education. Although interventions are available to educators, there is a need to enhance systems capacity through identification, selection, and implementation of appropriate interventions that will meet the diverse needs of students. This article presents a selection model for education using the public health model of prevention work, based on primary, secondary, and tertiary levels of need, combined with the RE-AIM (Reach-Efficacy-Adoption-Implementation-Maintenance) framework of evaluating interventions along five main dimensions. This model can help systems identify appropriate prevention and intervention approaches for their settings, taking into account the efficacy and effectiveness of the efforts, available resources, and other critical considerations.

“Broadly speaking, school-based healthy eating interventions use two approaches: individual-level interventions, which tailor curricula to influence adolescents’ behaviours, and system-level interventions, which embed strategic actions into daily life to modify school policies [17].”

“However, our review found that the combination of effective components within the collaborative individual- and system-level approach for adolescents aged 10 to 19 years involved shaping knowledge through educational instructions and experiments, creating associations with stimuli that cue healthy behaviours, and establishing antecedents to facilitate healthy food choices [17, 19, 53, 54].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
