Casey B. Chauvin; Joseph H. Wehby; Lee Kern – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2024
Within the context of a multi-tiered framework for behavior support, intervention intensification is warranted when a Tier II intervention fails to adequately address a targeted behavior. A traditional approach to intensification is to shift from standardized supports at Tier II to individualized and more resource-intensive supports at Tier III.…

Allday, R. Allan; Burt, Jonathan L.; Haggard, Kaitlin N. – Preventing School Failure, 2021
Research has suggested that students from underserved and underrepresented backgrounds (e.g., students of color and those with disabilities) have received higher rates of exclusionary discipline (e.g., suspensions and expulsions) than their peers who are White and without disability. Various interventions have been implemented to address this…

Sugai, George; Simonsen, Brandi – Beyond Behavior, 2020
This article provides an overview of how reinforcement serves as the foundation for a function-based approach to support students with challenging behavior. Understanding reinforcement is essential when providing function-based support for students with challenging behavior. Reinforcement "strengthens" behavior, increasing the…

Prykanowski, Debra A.; Conroy, Maureen A.; Reichow, Brian – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2021
Functional communication training (FCT) is a common function-based intervention for young children with or at risk for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to teach an alternative communicative response to replace problem behavior. While FCT is effective in decreasing problem behavior, often the communicative behavior that is taught occurs at a higher…

Schieltz, Kelly M.; Wacker, David P.; Romani, Patrick W. – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2017
We evaluated the effects of providing positive reinforcement for task completion, signaled via the presence of a tangible item, on escape-maintained problem behavior displayed by three typically developing children during one-time 90-min outpatient evaluations. Brief functional analyses of problem behavior, conducted within a multielement design,…

Hendrix, Nicole M.; Vancel, Samantha M.; Bruhn, Allison L.; Wise, Sara; Kang, Sungeun – Preventing School Failure, 2018
Paraprofessionals carry out behavior interventions for students with challenging behavior in inclusive classroom settings. Examination of paraprofessional involvement in behavior interventions informs how paraprofessionals may best support intervention implementation. The researchers used a withdrawal design to evaluate the effects of a…

Oakes, Wendy Peia; Lane, Kathleen Lynne; Hirsch, Shanna Eisner – Preventing School Failure, 2018
It can be challenging for educators to select intervention tactics based on the function of the student's behavior. In this article, authors offer practical information on behavioral function and environmental-focused intervention ideas for educators developing behavior intervention plans. Ideas are organized according to the hypothesized function…

Losinski, Mickey; Sanders, Sara; Katsiyannis, Antonis; Wiseman, Nicole – Education and Treatment of Children, 2017
The current meta-analysis examined the evidence for interventions to improve compliance of students with disabilities in school settings. Experimental investigations that investigated compliance or non-compliance and took place with students in a school setting who were between birth and 23 years old were evaluated using the Council for…

Lipschultz, Joshua L.; Wilder, David A. – Education and Treatment of Children, 2017
Noncompliance is a common behavior problem exhibited by typically developing children, as well as individuals with intellectual disabilities, and is correlated with a number of psychiatric diagnoses later in life. We begin this manuscript by describing the definition and prevalence of noncompliance. We then review the assessment procedures that…

Bruhn, Allison L.; Kaldenberg, Erica; Bappe, Kemlyn Tan; Brandsmeier, Brian; Rila, Ashley; Lanphier, Lindsay; Lewis, Megan; Slater, Alexandra – Preventing School Failure, 2016
In two studies, the systematic approach to designing functional assessment-based interventions (FABIs) created by Umbreit, Ferro, Liaupsin, and Lane (2007) was used with high school students receiving special education services in self-contained classrooms reserved for students with persistent behavior problems. In Study 1, an AB design was used…

Bruhn, Allison L.; Balint-Langel, Kinga; Troughton, Leonard; Langan, Sean; Lodge, Kelsey; Kortemeyer, Sara – Behavioral Disorders, 2015
For years, the assumption has been that stereotypical behaviors functioned only to provide sensory or automatic reinforcement. However, these behaviors also may serve social functions. Given the unsettled debate, functional behavior assessment and functional analysis can be used to identify the exact function of stereotypical behavior and design…

McIntosh, Kent; Lucyshyn, Joseph M.; Strickland-Cohen, M. Kathleen; Horner, Robert H. – Grantee Submission, 2015
Effective behavior support is achieved through designing supportive environments. However, it is common to overlook the context of implementation when designing support for individuals. This lack of attention to the broader context (e.g., behavior of peers, school resources, capacity of family members to use recommended strategies) may lead to…

Obiakor, Festus E.; Gibson, Lenwood – Journal of the International Association of Special Education, 2015
Hobson's Choice is a psychological philosophy that prescribes a "take-it-or-leave-it" approach when addressing the problematic behaviors of students. Logically, this choice provides a traditional order in the classroom and gives teachers and service providers the sole power and authority to manage problem behaviors. For many students…

Billingsley, Glenna M. – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2016
Academic expectations are often antecedents for various types of inappropriate classroom behavior for students with challenging behavior. Effective interventions for managing these behaviors must involve techniques that combat academic refusal. Addressing the underlying issues of resistance or refusal to perform academically in school using…

Greer, Brian D.; Neidert, Pamela L.; Dozier, Claudia L.; Payne, Steven W.; Zonneveld, Kimberley L. M.; Harper, Amy M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2013
We conducted functional analyses (FA) with 4 typically developing preschool children during ongoing classroom activities and evaluated treatments that were based on FA results. Results of each child's FA suggested social-positive reinforcement functions, and differential reinforcement of alternative behavior plus time-out was effective in…
