About this study
Official title: Family Therapy Training and Implementation Platform (FTTIP): An Innovative Web-based Tool for Long-term Practice Improvement Supplement Study
The goal of this observational study is to learn about therapists' and agency leaders' experience with evidenced based treatments and the Family Therapy Training and Implementation Platform (FTTIP).
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- What are the perceptions and experiences of the therapists about the process of learning and practicing specific Culturally Informed Flexible Family Based Treatment for Adolescents (CIFFTA) competencies from the platform?
- What are therapists' unique experiences related to implementation of the evidenced based treatment (EBT), delivery of competencies learned, and the application of EBT in a real-world context?
- What are agency leaders' experiences in facilitating EBTs at their agencies what are the barriers that can be addressed by the organizational readiness work?
- What is the experience of the entire agency with the platform, consultation process, perceived cost-benefit, and agency readiness?
Read the detailed description
The supplement project will have multiple components that augment the parent study by collecting qualitative data that we can combine with the parent study's quantitative data to better understand the experiences of trainees and agency leaders with the platform.Twenty trainees (randomly selected from the 75 CIFFTA parent study trainees) and 16 agency leaders from the sample of the parent study will be included. The proposed supplement aims to: 1) gather perceptions and experiences of the trainees about the process of learning and practicing specific CIFFTA competencies from the platform (time 1 interview) and later, about their unique experiences related to implementation of the EBT, delivery of competencies learned, and the application of EBT in a real-world context (time 2); and 2) gain a deeper understanding from leaders of their experiences in facilitating EBTs at their agencies, the identification of barriers that can be addressed by the organizational readiness work (time 1), and later regarding their agencies experience with the platform, consultation process, perceived cost-benefit, and agency readiness (at time 2).
