This project is focused on evaluating outcomes related to this statewide clinical training effort in the RUBI parent training program. Up to 400 providers in Maine are enrolling in a "Level 1" 16-hour RUBI introductory training through one of three modalities (1) self-paced "On Demand" webinars, (2) 16 weekly one-hour meetings ("ECHO group"); or (3) "2-day live virtual trainings." Up to 140 providers who complete Level 1 are then being offered the option to advance to "Level 2" RUBI Certification Training. These varying clinical training options create the opportunity to study three groups of RUBI Training participants who received varying intensities/doses of training: (1) those who completed only the 16-hr psychoeducational training either live or On Demand, (2) those who complete only the 16-hr training via the hybrid consultation/training ECHO model, and (3) those who complete intensive fidelity consultation training in addition to the 16-hr introductory training. In order to examine the impact of training dosage and modality on outcomes of this RUBI clinical training effort, we are conducting two related studies: The purpose of Study 1 is to learn about the crucial elements of RUBI intervention training in relation to promoting community provider implementation success. This will be measured by providers' self-reported data related to: 1) satisfaction with the RUBI training, 2) knowledge gained about behavioral principles through the training, 3) improvements in self-efficacy in supporting autistic youth with challenging behaviors and their caregivers, and 4) satisfaction with the RUBI intervention, including strategies used in practice with caregivers of youth with ASD/IDD. In other words, what is a "good enough" dose of RUBI training to promote provider satisfaction with the training, intervention, and use of RUBI strategies? The purpose of Study 2 is to provide an examination of RUBI intervention implementation by examining outcomes related to: 1) provider self-reported and observed implementation fidelity of RUBI during sessions, 2) caregiver implementation of RUBI strategies with their child, 3) caregiver satisfaction with the RUBI intervention, and 4) the effects of caregiver implementation of RUBI on child challenging behavior.
