The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of a digital solution that provides a variety of evidence-based interventions for executive functioning and attention deficits that are easy and effectively used by parents and teachers. Currently, delivery of evidence-based interventions for students with executive functioning/attention difficulties is impeded by several barriers including stress, lack of capacity, and lack of requisite knowledge about best practices. Using the proposed technology, users may select specific interventions based on a student’s executive function/attention deficit symptoms and/or diagnostic category. Once an intervention is selected, it may be individualized to fit the student’s unique profile of strengths and deficits prior to implementation by parent and teacher users. Positive impacts may include improved academic and social outcomes. This solution also may benefit schools and school districts by reducing the costs associated with the unintended consequences of unsupported executive function/attention difficulties, such as reducing staff turnover, reducing the need to hire professional development coaches, and increasing student grade retention.This I-Corps project is based on the development of a digital solution that translates a variety of evidence-based interventions for executive functioning and attention deficits that parents and teachers would be able to implement with fidelity. Executive functioning and attention deficits are commonly associated with a broad spectrum of psychopathologies. Effective nonpharmacological intervention approaches are those that are tailored to the individual and implemented when symptoms impede goal attainment. However, traditional effective executive functioning and attention interventions have historically been cumbersome to use and have lacked validity in the real-world context. The proposed technology uses a digital solution that translates traditional intervention approaches to mitigate executive functioning and attention deficit symptoms. Features that may amplify the efficacy of these digital approaches include psychoeducation, data collection and visualization, and home-school communication tools. The software is designed to provide users with a digital executive functioning and attention intervention technology that incorporates these best practices in order to make it easy for parents and teachers to consistently implement, track interventions with fidelity, and effectively reduce executive functioning and attention difficulties experienced by students.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该I-Corps项目的更广泛的影响/商业潜力是开发数字解决方案，该解决方案为执行功能和注意力缺乏提供了各种基于证据的干预措施，这些干预措施易于父母和老师。当前，为具有执行功能/注意力困难的学生提供基于证据的干预措施会受到多种障碍，包括压力，缺乏能力以及缺乏对最佳实践的必要知识。使用拟议的技术，用户可以根据学生的执行功能/注意力缺陷症状和/或诊断类别选择特定的干预措施。一旦选择了干预措施，它可能会个性化，以适合学生的优势独特概况，并在父母和教师用户实施之前定义。积极的影响可能包括改善学术和社会成果。该解决方案还可以通过降低与不支持执行功能/注意力困难的意外后果相关的成本来使学校和学区受益匪浅忠诚。功能和注意力缺陷通常与多种心理病理学有关。有效的非药理学干预方法是为个人量身定制并在症状阻碍目标尝试时实施的方法。但是，传统的有效的执行功能和注意力干预措施历史上很麻烦，并且在现实世界中缺乏有效性。拟议的技术使用数字解决方案，该数字解决方案转化了传统的干预方法，以减轻执行功能和注意力不足的症状。可能会扩大这些数字方法效率的功能包括心理教育，数据收集和可视化以及家庭学校的交流工具。 The software is designed to provide users with a digital executive functioning and attention intervention technology that incorporates these best practices in order to make it easy for parents and teachers to consistently implement, track interventions With fidelity, and effectively reduce executive functioning and attention difficulty experience by students.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed precious of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
