Is the “response” positive, questionable, or poor?
Positive = the same or current instruction/interventions may be continued with the same or increased goal or may be “faded” gradually
Questionable = the rate at which the gap is widening slows but is still widening and does not close
Were the interventions implemented with fidelity?
Negative = the rate at which the gap is widening increases
