The screening protocol needs to be psychometrically…

Alexandra L. Trout; Matthew C. Lambert; Timothy D. Nelson; Ronald W. Thompson – Behavioral Disorders, 2014
The prevalence of weight problems among youth in general and youth in out-of-home care has been well documented; however, the prevalence of obesity/overweight among youth with high-incidence disabilities in more restrictive settings, such as residential care, has not been assessed. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence of…

A major goal of positive behavior support (PBS) is to produce broad-based, long-term improvements in adaptive behavior; however, the empirical base, at present, is mainly composed of relatively short-term studies carried out in circumscribed contexts. Therefore, a need exists for reliable data that can inform the field regarding the comprehensive…

Forness, Steven R.; Dvorak, Renne – Behavioral Disorders, 1982

Performance increased under untimed conditions only in the area of reading comprehension. (Author/SEW)

Deficits on test-taking skills may contribute to observed…
