Tiivistelmä	Treatment fidelity assessment measures the degree to which an intervention is actually delivered as it was designed — covering adherence to prescribed components, the competence with which they are delivered, the dose received, and how clearly the intervention differs from other approaches. Codified for behavioral research by the NIH Behavior Change Consortium and framed conceptually by Carroll and colleagues, it protects the validity of intervention research and the integrity of evidence-based practice by ensuring that when an intervention is studied or implemented, what was named is what was done.	Case management fidelity assessment measures how closely a case-management or care-coordination program matches the defined model it claims to implement — such as assertive community treatment, intensive case management, or a strengths model — by rating specific structural and process dimensions on anchored scales and aggregating them into an overall fidelity score. The approach was established by the Dartmouth tradition of Teague, Bond, and Drake, whose Assertive Community Treatment fidelity scale became the template for measuring whether a program is delivering its model in practice or only in name.
