No research compared child-level versus teacher-level influences on EBP use, which could guide implementation strategies. We derived longitudinal profiles of EBP receipt by children (N = 234) in 69 autism-support classrooms, over an academic year.…

Sixty-six preschool children with autism in twelve classrooms (12 teachers) were randomized to receive…
