Evaluation of a Targeted Intervention Within a Schoolwide System of Behavior Support
TLDR
This paper provided a fine-grained analysis using a multiple baseline across students design with the targeted intervention as the independent variable, and both classroom problem behavior and academic engagement as dependent variables.Abstract:
A recommended component of comprehensive behavior support in schools is a targeted intervention designed to efficiently and effectively meet the support needs of students who are not responding to preventive schoolwide intervention strategies (Sugai, Horner et al., 2000; Walker et al., 1996). This study provides a fine-grained analysis using a multiple baseline across students design with the targeted intervention as the independent variable, and both classroom problem behavior and academic engagement as dependent variables. The multiple baseline analysis documents a modest functional relationship between implementation of the intervention and reduction in problem behavior. Implications for the design of behavior support in schools and the development of future research are provided.read more

TL;DR: In this paper, school districts throughout the country are encouraged to implement school-wide positive behavior support (PBS) procedures as a way to improve their behavioral climate, safety, and social culture.

Examining the Evidence Base for School-Wide Positive Behavior Support
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose six criteria that may be useful in this discussion and apply these criteria to assessment of Schoolwide Positive Behavior Support (SWPBS), which combines multiple systems and practices within a three-tiered behavior support framework.

Response to Intervention: Examining Classroom Behavior Support in Second Grade:
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated a response-to-intervention (RTI) approach to behavior support in 2 second-grade classrooms and found that a slightly more intensive but efficient targeted intervention (check in and check out) was effective in supporting the social behavior success of 4 students whose problem behaviors were unresponsive to general classroom management practices.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effects of a Targeted Intervention to Reduce Problem Behaviors: Elementary School Implementation of Check In-Check Out.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined if there is a functional relation between the implementation of CICO and a reduction in problem behaviors and found that CICO with four elementary school-age boys was functionally related to a reduction of problem behavior.

TL;DR: In this paper, a reconceptualization of the role of schools in preventing antisocial behavior problems among children and youth is presented, where the U.S. Public Health Service's conceptual model of prevention, involving primary, secondary and tertiary prevention approaches, is used as an organizing framework to illustrate how schools can deliver interventions more effectively and improve outcomes.
