Questions to Ponder• What is “scientifically/evidence-based”
intervention/practice?
• How do we measure & ensure “fidelity of implementation?”
• How do we determine “non-responsiveness?”
• Can we affect “teacher practice?”
• Do we have motivation to increase efficiency of “systems” organization?
• ???

Horner, R., & Sugai, G. (2008). Is school-wide positive behavior support an evidence-based practice? OSEP Technical Assistance Center on Positive Behavioral Interventions & Support.
90-School StudyHorner et al., in press
•Schools that receive technical assistance from typical support personnel implement SWPBS with fidelity
•Fidelity SWPBS is associated with▫Low levels of ODR
▫ .29/100/day v. national mean .34
▫Improved perception of safety of the school ▫ reduced risk factor
▫Increased proportion of 3rd graders who meet state reading standard.
Project Target: Preliminary FindingsBradshaw & Leaf, in press
• PBIS (21 v. 16) schools reached & sustained high fidelity
• PBIS increased all aspects of organizational health
• Positive effects/trends for student outcomes– Fewer students with 1 or more ODRs (majors + minors)
– Fewer ODRs (majors + minors)
– Fewer ODRs for truancy
– Fewer suspensions
– Increasing trend in % of students scoring in advanced & proficient range of state achievement test
