Enhancing Team Effectiveness for a Collaborative School-based Intervention for ADHD

We will integrate three team-based implementation strategies to enhance team effectiveness in CLS, including Team Charters, Team Communication Training via Student Handoff Protocols, and Team Performance Monitoring. These interventions have been shown to improve cognitive (e.g., shared mental models) and affective ((e.g., trust, collective efficacy) team-based emergent states and enhance team-based processes, such as communication and coordination.

CLS is a school-delivered intervention coordinating three empirically-supported approaches: teacher consultation and a daily behavior report card, behavioral parent training and child skills training. The three components are integrated over a 10-12 week period to improve symptoms and functional impairment among youth with ADHD.
