Positive Supports for Behavior and Discipline Resource Database

The PBIS Evaluation Blueprint provides guidance regarding the evaluation process, tools, and outcomes that guide both initial adoption and sustained use of PBIS. A goal of this Blueprint is to provide a suggested format, structure, and materials to support a wide range of evaluation plans.

Schools implementing evidence-based practices need support systems to enable effectiveness and efficiency to enhance outcomes. PBIS schools establish working structures or operational procedures to organize, sustain, and scale implementation. This session will describe the foundational system features critical to successful school-wide implementation.

The purpose of this study was to examine discipline disproportionality among schools implementing SWPBIS compared to the entire population of schools in the U.S. Examining patterns in a large-scale evaluation of schools implementing and not implementing SWPBIS could help determine the extent to which implementation of SWPBIS is related to lower, higher, or unchanged discipline disparities.

This manual presents procedures to train school-based personnel to conduct basic functional behavioral assessments (FBA) and design function-based behavior support plans (BSP).

This technical brief is based on the 5-point multicomponent approach to reduce disproportionality. This brief elaborates on point one, regarding academic instruction, by defining key principles of evidence-based instructional practices.

This guide is designed to assist the early childhood mental health consultant, behavior specialist, or school psychologist in guiding preschool teachers, teams, and families in developing and implementing an individualized plan of support that results in a reduction of challenging behavior and the promotion of communication and social skills.

This brief provides considerations for conducting and implementing functional behavior assessments (FBAs) and behavior intervention plans (BIPs) using virtual technology.

This video provides an overview of the Pyramid Model as a PBIS framework for promoting young children’s social and emotional development and preventing and addressing challenging behavior.

The purpose of this guide is to describe how school-based personnel can build and implement a continuum of function-based supports at Tier 3 that are designed to more effectively meet the needs of a broader range of students who struggle with persistent challenging behavior. This guide is intended to be a resource for individuals and teams with a working knowledge of Tier 3 who regularly design and implement supports for students with intensive needs.

The purpose of this practice guide is to help teams conduct a comprehensive functional behavior assessment, develop a function-linked behavior intervention/support plan, and make data-based decisions. Functional behavior assessments help teams to identify the relation of targeted serious and intense (i.e., challenging) behavior to the environmental events that occur before and after the behavior is performed.

Recordings here include keynotes and presentations about FBA/BIP/BSP concepts.

This brief describes how educators use a function-based approach to (a) prevent contextually inappropriate behaviors and (b) teach and encourage social, emotional, and behavioral skills throughout the PBIS continuum of support. In addition, this brief highlights critical features of effective functional behavioral assessment (FBA) and behavior support plans (BSP).

A resource collection compiled by and for Parent Centers and others. Resources are divided by type: good reads on behavior basics and PBS; webinars, presentations, videos; and webpages. (This is part 1 of the 3-part resource collection called Resource Collection on Positive Behavior Supports, Functional Behavioral Assessment, and School Discipline.)
