A Developmental Model for Determining Whether the Treatment Is Actually Implemented

Hall, Gene E., Loucks, Susan F.·1977·American Educational Research Journal

Abstract

Determining whether or not the treatment or innovation under study is actually in use, and if so, how it is being used, is essential to the interpretation of any study. The concept of Levels of Use of the Innovation (LoU) permits an operational, cost-feasible description and documentation of whether or not an innovation or treatment is being implemented. Data from change research and evaluation studies indicate that there are eight different LoU’s that can be reliably measured. Knowing the LoU of individuals within a research or evaluation sample can avoid holding false assumptions and making misleading interpretations about the user/nonuser and the effects of the treatment or innovation under study.

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.
