“…In particular, adoption of a science-based approach to prevention accounted for "96% of the variation between the CTC intervention and student problem behaviors" (E. C. Brown et al, 2014, p. 629). Relatedly, two coalition capacities, involvement of diverse community sectors in the CTC process and board members' acquisition of new skills, have been found to predict communities' adoption of a science-based approach to prevention (Shapiro, Oesterle, & Hawkins, 2015b), while four dimensions of coalition functioning (goal directedness, efficiency, opportunities for participation, and cohesion) have strong relationships with these two key coalition capacities (Shapiro, Hawkins, & Oesterle, 2015a). These key indicators can provide a means for assessing whether CTC approaches adapted for purposes other than prevention of adolescent risk behavior are achieving the same implementation and system transformation success as those found in communities implementing the original CTC approach.…”
