Background: Education researchers typically estimate average program effects with regression; if they are interested in heterogeneous effects, they include an interaction in the model. Such models quantify and infer the influences of each covariate on the effect via interaction coefficients and their associated p-values or confidence intervals.…

Principal burnout and churn negatively impact teacher retention and student achievement. The principal retention problem has led to programs to help principals gain resilience and reduce burnout. This program evaluation aimed to discover the effectiveness of the Principal Impact Collaborative (PIC) over time and which strategies reduce principals'…
