Abstract

School-Wide Positive Behavior Support (SWPBS) is increasingly becoming a popular approach to managing problem behavior in schools. Despite its widespread implementation, little research has been done focusing on the implementation process. The purpose of the current study was to explore the implementation of SWPBIS in school systems. Specifically, the researcher wanted to examine the extent to which school personnel used different SWPBIS classroom- based practices. Results indicated that the most frequently used practices were teaching students behavior expectations and rewarding students who met the behavioral expectations. The least used practices were collecting data for decision making, graphing data, and conducting functional behavioral assessments. Recommendations and implications are provided.
