Many School Psychologist and Educational Consultants have used Bergan's Behavioral Consultation model (Bergan, 1977) in public school and residential settings with significant success (Witt, Noell, LaFleur & Mortenson, 1997). Performance feedback (Noell, Duhon, Gatti, & Connell, 2002) has been used to strengthen the behavioral consultation model by monitoring intervention implementation and providing procedures to increase intervention fidelity. The present study examines the effects of modified performance feedback procedures by investigating its use in home settings. Results indicate the performance feedback alone was not effective in increasing all components of intervention implementation. However, subsequent telephone follow-up calls did increase intervention implementation. Results are discussed highlighting modifications and limitations to performance feedback in the home.
