Daily behavioral report cards (DRC) are an efficacious intervention for children with ADHD, yet there is little information on Latinx teachers' perceptions about ADHD and preferences related to behavioral treatment. The purpose of the current study was to examine the feasibility and acceptability of behavioral consultation with Latinx teachers and students, with a particular focus on the DRC. Participants (n = 23) included elementary school teachers (100% Hispanic/Latinx, 96% female) working with predominantly Hispanic/Latinx students. We leveraged a convergent, mixed-method design to evaluate feasibility, acceptability, as well as several potentially associated factors (i.e., perceptual, practical/logistical, individual, and cultural factors). Quantitative and qualitative measures and analyses were guided by the Consolidated Framework for Intervention Research. We found that Latinx teachers' Daily Report Card (DRC) completion rates (80%) were comparable to previous studies with predominantly non-Latinx white teachers and students. Quantitative indicators of acceptability were also similar to the prior literature. Few variables were associated with DRC completion rates, with the exception of teacher self-report of stress and satisfaction, which were both positively associated with completion rates. Qualitative findings expanded quantitative trends; thematic analyses revealed two overarching themes, that (1) teachers' attitudes toward behavioral interventions matter a great deal, and that (2) teachers' perceived behavioral control over DRC implementation depends a lot on the environment. Findings highlight the importance of stakeholders' perspectives, including teachers, in translating research to practice in real world settings.
