Disclosure of Potential Conflicts of Interests1

The research team for this study consisted of a prime contractor, American Institutes for Research (AIR), and three subcontractors, MDRC, REDA International, Inc., and Westat, Inc. None of these organizations or their key staff has financial interests that could be affected by findings from the Middle School Mathematics Professional Development Impact Study. No one on the 10-member Expert Advisory Panel, convened by the research team annually to provide advice and guidance, has financial interests that could be affected by findings from the evaluation.

1 Contractors carrying out research and evaluation projects for the Institute of Education Sciences (IES) frequently need to obtain expert advice and technical assistance from individuals and entities whose other professional work may not be entirely independent of or separable from the particular tasks they are carrying out for the IES contractor. Contractors endeavor not to put such individuals or entities in positions in which they could bias the analysis and reporting of results, and their potential conflicts of interest are disclosed.
