The Dartmouth Assertive Community Treatment Scale (DACTS)
Generalizability theory was used to assess the reliability of the Dartmouth Assertive Community Treatment Scale (DACTS), which was developed to assess treatment reliability to assertive community treatment (ACT). Program staff and local evaluators who were participating in a national demonstration program to serve homeless mentally ill clients provided data. The total scale score for the DACTS demonstrated acceptable internal consistency and interrater reliability. Although the stability of the total DACTS score was quite low, many items on the DACTS were quite stable. The generalizability analyses provide additional detail on the effects of site, occasion, and site by occasion interactions on the reliability of the DACTS.
