For each of the attitudes and beliefs items, drivers were asked how much they agreed, or disagreed, with key statements. For example: "Bus drivers treat students respectfully." The second attitudes/beliefs items assessed drivers\' job satisfaction by asking for the driver\'s level of agreement with statements such as, "I feel like my job is important." Response options were the same for all attitudes/beliefs items: "1=Agree a lot, 5=disagree a lot."'}], 'secondaryOutcomes': [{'measure': 'Self-efficacy in managing misbehavior', 'timeFrame': 'Session 1 (Day 1) posttest, Session 2 (Day 2) posttest, 30-day follow-up, 60-day follow-p', 'description': 'Drivers\' self-efficacy was assessed by two sets of items. The first set of items assessed drivers\' confidence in knowing best ways to deal with misbehaviors. These included 10 items that asked drivers to rate their level of confidence in knowing how to handle specific student misbehaviors such as inappropriate behavior or students physically hurting other students. The second set of items assessed drivers\' confidence in using specific strategies. These were four items developed from the program content; e.g., "How confident are you that you could always restate the behavior rule every time a student argues with you?" Each of the self-efficacy items used a 5-point rating scale (1=very confident, 2=somewhat confident, 3=not sure, 4=doubtful, and 5=not at all confident).'}, {'measure': 'Perceived student misbehaviors', 'timeFrame': 'Session 1 (Day 1) posttest, Session 2 (Day 2) posttest, 30-day follow-up, 60-day follow-p', 'description': 'The student misbehaviors items assessed drivers\' perception of frequency of student misbehavior occurrences. The items asked drivers to indicate how often student misbehaviors occurred, such as inappropriate language, students damaging or littering the bus, or students threatening or bullying other students. Responses were on a 5-point scale: "1=All of the time, 2=most of the time, 3=about half the time, 4=rarely, and 5=never."'}, {'measure': 'Knowledge', 'timeFrame': 'Session 1 (Day 1) posttest, Session 2 (Day 2) posttest, 30-day follow-up, 60-day follow-p', 'description': '. Seven knowledge items were developed to test drivers on specific program content from the two main program modules: 1) techniques for creating a positive and safe environment on the bus (i.e., positive environment) and 2) effective strategies for correcting misbehaviors when they occur (i.e., correction strategies). Each item was presented as a multiple-choice question, with 1 correct response and 3 distractors. Each of the 7 items was coded "1" for correct and "0" for incorrect answers. A mean score was then calculated to create a scale.'}, {'measure': 'Intention-behavior', 'timeFrame': 'Session 1 (Day 1) posttest, Session 2 (Day 2) posttest, 30-day follow-up, 60-day follow-p', 'description': 'Items in the intention-behavior scale, adapted from the Parenting Scale by Arnold, O\'Leary, Wolff, \\& Acker (1993),were presented with text anchors on each continuum For example, at the left side of a row of circles a text response represented the more effective response to the student interaction (coded as "7"). At the right side of the row of circles a text response represented the least effective response to the student interaction (coded as "1"). The driver chose the circle corresponding to how he or she would respond. For example, for the statement, "When I correct a student for misbehavior," the response anchors presented were "I state the rule in my correction" (best response; 7 points) and "I say whatever needs to be said without thinking too much about the wording" (least effective response; 1 point). If the driver chose the second circle from the right, the response was coded as a "6."

In the Driver's Seat was designed as a stand-alone DVD-based training program for school bus drivers of elementary schools, using video examples presenting real driver and student interactions on the bus. A computer-based program for transportation supervisors supplemented the driver training materials and included information for supervisors about developing and maintaining department-wide transportation policies, as well as an overview of the bus driver training materials and instructions for their use.\n\nThe components of the In the Driver's Seat bus driver training program could be implemented by a transportation team without the need of an expert and could be used to train new personnel or review and refresh veteran personnel's skills. The DVD-based component was designed for use by a transportation supervisor or driver trainer in a group setting with drivers and augmented the material presented in the drivers' program."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '5 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Bus drivers and administrators will be 18 or older.\n* All subjects must be employed by elementary or middle schools.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Excluded from the study will be bus drivers and administrators not in elementary schools\n* Staff who are not bus drivers or administrators for elementary or middle schools will also be excluded.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02330835', 'acronym': 'BUS_2', 'briefTitle': 'Multimedia Program to Promote Positive Bus Behavior', 'organization': {'class': 'INDUSTRY', 'fullName': 'Oregon Center for Applied Science, Inc.'}, 'officialTitle': 'Multimedia Program to Promote Positive Bus Behavior', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'SBIR55-2'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': '1R44DA015251-02', 'link': 'https://reporter.nih.gov/quickSearch/1R44DA015251-02', 'type': 'NIH'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': "In the Driver's Seat", 'description': "Treatment materials.
