Summary
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the Organizational Skills Training Program - Tier 2 version (OST-T2) in a cluster randomized trial. Participating schools will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) an OST-T2 intervention group and 2) a treatment as usual control group. Participating students (3rd through 5th grade) were from 22 schools in Pennsylvania and New Jersey and included both urban and suburban schools serving a diverse population. OST-T2 is a small-group, skills training intervention for children, which includes parent and teacher consultation to support student use of new skills. The program is delivered by school staff who receive training and consultation from intervention experts.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
Any student enrolled in grades 3 through 5 in one of the participating schools who meets the following criteria.
- First, students will be recommended by their general education teacher if the following are true: (a) students who are struggling the most with OTMP skills, (b) whose OTMP skill deficits are the students' primary concern (c) whose academic performance is negatively impacted by their OTMP deficits, and (d) who have at least one parent who speaks English.
- Second, students must have or be at risk for developing OTMP deficits.
Exclusion Criteria
- Students will be excluded if they are in a pull-out special education classroom for more than 50% of the day as the organizational demands for these students may differ from those students placed mostly in general education.
- Students with a one-to-one aide will be excluded because the presence of an aide substantially alters how an organizational intervention is implemented.
- Students from families in which both caregivers do not speak English will be excluded because the program has not yet been developed for non-English speakers.
- Only one student per family will be included in the study.
