Abstract
OBJECTIVES:
To assess the feasibility of recruitment, retention, outcome measures and intervention training/delivery among teachers, parents and children. To calculate a sample size estimation for full trial.Evaluer la faisabilité de la sélection, du maintien, des mesures du résultat et de la formation/délivrance de l'intervention de chez les enseignants, les parents et les enfants. Calculer un échantillon d'estimation de taille pour un essai complet.
DESIGN:
A single-centre, unblinded, cluster feasibility randomised controlled trial examining Social Stories delivered within a school environment compared with an attentional control.SETTING:
37 primary schools in York, UK.PARTICIPANTS:
50 participants were recruited and a cluster randomisation approach by school was examined. Participants were randomised into the treatment group (n=23) or a waiting list control group (n=27).OUTCOME MEASURES:
Acceptability and feasibility of the trial, intervention and of measurements required to assess outcomes in a definitive trial.RESULTS:
An assessment of the questionnaire completion rates indicated teachers would be most appropriate to complete the primary outcome measure. 2 outcome measures: the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS)-2 and a goal-based measure showed both the highest levels of completion rates (above 80%) at the primary follow-up point (6 weeks postintervention) and captured relevant social and behaviour outcomes. Power calculations were based on these 2 outcome measures leading to a total proposed sample size of 180 participant groups.Une évaluation des taux d'achèvement du questionnaire a indiqué les enseignants seraient les plus pertinents pour compléter la mesure du résultat primaire. 2 mesures de résultats: l'échelle de réactivité sociale (SRS) - 2 et une mesure fondée sur les buts ont montré à la fois les plus hauts niveaux de taux d'accomplissement (au-dessus de 80%) au niveau du point de suivi primaire (6 semaines post-intervention) et a capturé les résultats comportementaux et sociaux pertinents. Les calculs de puissance ont été basés sur ces 2 mesures de résultats conduisant à une taille totale de l'échantillon proposé des groupes de 180 participants.
CONCLUSIONS:
Results suggest that a future trial would be feasible to conduct and could inform the policy and practice of using Social Stories in mainstream schools.Les résultats suggèrent qu'il serait possible de mener un futur essai qui pourrait éclairer la politique et la pratique de l'utilisation des scénarios sociaux dans les écoles ordinaires.
