How Has Intervention Fidelity Been Assessed in Smoking Cessation Interventions? A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Intervention fidelity concerns the degree to which interventions are implemented as intended. Fidelity frameworks propose fidelity is a multidimensional concept relevant at intervention designer, provider, and recipient levels; yet the extent to which it is assessed multidimensionally is unclear.
