Special Need Assistants/paraprofessionals serve an essential role in special education to support children with multiple disabilities, but they often lack adequate training and supervision. The study aims to examine the effects of the coaching program for assistants compared to a workshop outside working hours and evaluate the outcomes in students and assistants. The second aim is to measure fidelity implementation of coaching practices and if the intervention was participation-based.

Other | Classification of goals and adaptations | The types of goals and adaptations were classified according to daily living activities, such as using the toileting, eating, feeding, hygiene and grooming, dressing, functional mobility, and others (miscellanea). Accommodations or adaptations to enhance children's participation were registered during and after the intervention as a) not necessary, b) natural for the child or easy to acquire, c) a rehabilitation device, or d) an architectonic/extensive modification. The adaptations were analyzed as an independent element in the goals that improved performance two or more points in the COPM. | 6 month | |
Primary | Change in The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). Students | Caregivers identify activities that are problematic for the child. The caregiver rates the child's performance and satisfaction for each participation goal on a 10-point scale, (1=unable to perform, unsatisfied; 10= performs exceptionally well, extremely satisfied). Differences in scores pre-and post-intervention for both performance and satisfaction are determined independently. A 2-points change in these values is considered clinically meaningful. | baseline- 3 month after intervention | |
Primary | Change in Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS). Assistants. | Clients identify goals and rate their performance on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from -2 (much less than expected) to +2 (much better than expected). In the baseline, clients can score -1 or -2, and the score "0" is the expected level of success. The 4-point Likert scale is used for quantifying importance (ranging from 0= nothing important to 3= really important) and difficulty (ranging from 0= easy to 3= very difficult). Afterwards, the goal's weight is calculated (importance*difficulty). A mathematical formula allows computation to T-score with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. | Baseline - 3 month after intervention | |
Secondary | The Coaching Practices Rating Scale. | The Coaching Practices Rating Scale was utilized as a secondary outcome to measure the fidelity of coaching. Its 14 items are based on adults' learning characteristics and coaching practices to determine how the coach use these practices, on a 5-point Likert scale. The scale accepts the rating through video-tapes and has a high degree of construct validity and internal consistency. | 12 month after intervention | |
Secondary | Natural Environments Rating Scale (NERS) | The NERS describes eight categories: 1) setting; 2) activity; 3) type of activity; 4) engagement of child; 5) activity leader; 6) materials; 7) role of the caregiver; 8) the role of the professional. If there is no child-centred activity, grading is discontinued for the remaining categories. Only the last four categories are rated for an overall score that differentiated traditional or participation-based services. | 12 month after intervention | |
Secondary | Change in learning. Social validity | Paraprofessionals were invited to reply to a writing questionnaire. This survey collected information about their training preferences and satisfaction with received training. | 6 month | |
Secondary | Change in transfer and generalization of learning | All paraprofessionals were invited to reply to a semi-structured interview through a phone. This interview collected information about their current employment, the degree in which they had been able to put into practice the skills learned and the challenges for their professional development. | 19-20 mounths after intervention |
