Therapist adherence measures.

Adherence Measure
-Number of parent engagement strategies (ACEs) used per individual consultation feedback form (possible range: 0–9)
-Therapists’ report of ACEs strategies used across the past month rated on a Likert scale from 1–5 (up to three months of data were collected and scores were averaged by therapist)
-Observed extensiveness of use of ACEs strategies (scale from 0–6)
-Whether the therapist met toolkit implementation benchmarks (submitted all four completed Activities, submitted at least three completed Action Sheets, ordered at least three Messages; see Table 1)

Note: ACEs=Therapist Alliance, Collaboration, and Empowerment Strategies Observational Coding System; implementation benchmarks were decided based on the approximate number of sessions needed to complete the DVD and Workbook, when the most intensive dose of PACT is being delivered.
