Implementation support enhances the KiVa antibullying program
Area of Science:
- School-based interventions
- Public health
- Educational psychology
Background:
- Lack of evidence-based models for school bullying prevention.
- Need to examine tailored support's impact on program implementation.
- Evaluating student outcomes and cost-effectiveness of support.
Purpose of the Study:
- To examine the impact of tailored support on KiVa antibullying program implementation.
- To evaluate if support influences student outcomes like victimization and bullying perpetration.
- To assess the cost-effectiveness and conduct a process evaluation of the support.
Main Methods:
- Cluster randomized control trial (cRCT) with 24 Finnish schools.
- Intervention group received tailored implementation support (IMPRES).
- Control group received KiVa as usual; data collected at baseline, year 1, and year 2.
Main Results:
- Primary outcomes focus on program fidelity (universal and indicated actions).
- Secondary outcomes include bullying victimization, perpetration, and fidelity perception.
- Tertiary outcomes, resource data, and qualitative interviews for further analysis.
Conclusions:
- Implementation support can potentially boost program fidelity.
- Support may have a distal impact on reducing bullying prevalence.
