Jaiya R. Choles; Robert W. Roeser; Andrew J. Mashburn – Grantee Submission, 2022
Social-emotional learning (SEL) programs are frequently evaluated using randomized controlled trial (RCT) methodology as a means to assess program impacts. What is often missing in RCT studies is a robust parallel investigation of the multi-level implementation of the program. The field of implementation science bridges the gap between the RCT…

Critics posed concerns about a perceived poor fit between…
