This is a question of great interest to me as well, since I came into this field from a research perspective. About three years ago, we started developing a set of benchmarks for agencies that was intended to allow us to count something so that we could assess impact (some sort of fidelity instrument). However, I think operationalizing and measuring TIC is going to be extremely difficult - and is a ways out - and for that reason, our Standards of Practice here in Oregon are evolving to be more qualitative and developmental. We'll see if we can pull something more quantitative out of it as we move it into use in the field over this next year. But getting something that is reliable across organizations will be tough.
That said, there has been some research in schools looking at the impact on suspension and expulsion of certain changes in disciplinary strategies. But, again, measuring implementation is the trick.
We would be extremely interested in the ARTIC measure - we have a doctoral student who is interested in doing some research in this area.
