Can PBIS Effectively Address Trends in Bullying?
Applying Evidence Based PracticeWorking Smarter, Not Harder
Susan Barrett
Big Ideas• Anchored in Three Tiered Logic- back up plan for non
responders• Linked to school improvement plan- clear outcomes, clear
operating procedures• Based on School-wide foundation
– Common language, common approach• Data/tools that makes it easy to get key information- • System created before students are identified with access to
support within 72 hours• NOT a gateway to special ed• Constant feedback loop to stakeholders• All staff, students, parents know how to access support,
process and expectations• Modify as necessary• Continuously change, adapt to fit school needs
MemoTo: School Administrators
From: District Administrators
In keeping with the new state initiative, this fall we will be implementing an exciting new district initiative of SNI in place of LYI. All in-service days previously scheduled for LYI will be rescheduled as staff development for SNI. The $500 for release time and materials for LYI will be discontinued and provided instead for SNI. By the way, you will need to create local SNI teams that meet weekly. The former members of your LYI team would be perfect for this new team. Your new SNI binders will be coming next week. Have a great year!!!

Non-negotiable: Natural extension of SW expectations- create decision rules, team approach, strength based, student and family voice, operating procedures
Who will provide the support?What will be the operating procedures?
• School Leadership Team- Tier I– Subset of Leadership Team- Tier II
• Problem Solving Team- Tier III
• Establish roles and responsibilities-– Whole team v individuals on team
• Communication procedures- each other, staff• Overlap?• What will work best for your school?

Bullying
• Analyze your school data
• Plan for prevention, plan for non- responders at Tier II, III
• Tool for tracking
• Communication
• Strategy
• Move from new to standard operating procedure
Defining Bullying
Aggressive behavior that intends to cause harm or distress
Usually is repeated over time
Occurs in a relationship where there is an imbalance of power or strength
(HRSA, 2006; Limber & Alley, 2006; Olweus, 1993)
Challenges in Defining Bullying
Bullying ≠ fighting- Fighting assume balance of power
Bullying ≠ conflict- Conflict suggests a disagreement
Bullying ≠ harassment- Harassment is for protected classes
Bullying ≈ peer victimization or abuse
Forms of BullyingDirect Hitting, kicking, shoving, spitting, stealing Taunting, teasing, sexual comments Threatening, obscene gesturesIndirect Getting another person to bully someone for you Spreading rumors Deliberately excluding someone from a group or
activity Cyberbullying
Cyberbullying Study of 3,767 children (grades 6-8) Prevalence
- 25% of girls and 11% of boys had been cyberbullied at least once- 13% of girls and 9% of boys had cyberbullied someone else at least once
Common methods of cyberbullying- Instant messaging: 67% (8th graders more)- Chat rooms: 25%- E-mail: 24%- Website: 24%- Text messaging: 15% (8th graders more)
Who did the cyberbullying?- Student at school (53%)- Didn’t know (48%)- Friend (37%)- Sibling (13%) (Kowalski et al., 2007)
Staff Experiences with Bullying
Staff Efficacy: Staff who had effective strategies Thought bullying was less of a problem Thought their school was doing “enough” to prevent
bullying Were more likely to intervene Were less likely to make the situation worse Felt safer at school Felt like they belonged at school
(Bradshaw et al., 2007, SPR)
Common “Misdirections” in Bullying Prevention and
Intervention
• Zero tolerance (student exclusion)
• Conflict Resolution/Peer Mediation
• Group treatment for children who bully
• Simple, short-term solutions

Main Ideas• “Bullying” is aggression, harassment,
threats or intimidation when one person has greater status, control, or power than the other.
• Bullying behaviors affect the sense of school as a “safe” environment.
video
Main Ideas• Bullying behavior typically is rewarded
(maintained) by the “victims” or “bystanders” – Social attention– Social recognition– Social status– Access to physical items/ preferred activities
• Bullying behavior is seldom maintained by adult attention
Main Ideas
• All “bully proofing” skills are more effective if the school has first established a set of POSITIVE school-wide behavioral expectations.
• Great care is needed to prevent a “bully-proofing” effort from becoming a “bully-training” program.

Step 1: Establish a social culture
• Teach school-wide behavioral expectations• Be respectful, be responsible, be safe
• Acknowledge appropriate behavior
• Establish clear consequences for inappropriate behavior
• Develop and use a data collection system for monitoring effects, and making decisions.

Teaching Social Responsibility• Teach school-wide expectations first
– Be respectful– Be responsible– Be safe
• Focus on “non-structured” settings• Cafeteria, Gym, Playground, Hallway, Bus Area
• Teach Bully Prevention “SKILLS”• If someone directs problem behavior toward you.• If you see others receive problem behavior• If someone tells you to “stop”
Step #2: Teach a school-wide “stop” signal
• If someone is directing problem behavior to you, or someone you are with, tell them to “stop.”
• What is the “Stop Signal” for your school?• Have a physical as well as verbal signal
– “Stop”– “Enough”– “Don’t”
• The language and signal need to age appropriate, and contextually acceptable.
Teach how to use the “Stop Signal”• How do you deliver the “stop signal” if you feel someone
is not being respectful?• (e.g. you feel intimidated, harassed, bullied)?
• How do you deliver the “stop signal” if you see someone else being harassed, teased, bullied?
• What to do if someone uses the “stop signal” with you?
• Note: Include “non-examples” of when and how to use “stop” signal.
Teach “walk away”“Look Cool and Walk Away”
• Most socially initiated problem behavior is maintained by peer attention.
– Victim behavior inadvertently maintains taunt, tease, intimidate, harassment behavior.
– Build social reward for victim for “walking away”
• Do not reward inappropriate behavior.
Teach “getting help”• Report problems to adults
– Where is the line between tattling, and reporting?
• The adult should always ask:– Did you say, “stop”– Did you walk away?
Step #3: Focus on Role of Adults
• How to teach expectations• Establish relationships- Acknowledgement System
as excuse to get to know everyone
• Pre-correct (quick practice of appropriate skills just prior to entering “high probability” context)– With whole class– With “at risk” students
• Reporting routine– What do you say when a student comes to you?– What do you ask of a student accused of being a bully?
Reporting Routine• A child comes to you and reports that someone
else was not respectful– “Did you say stop?”– “Did you walk away?”
• Talking to the child who was disrespectful– “Did he say stop”– “What did you do”– “Show me doing it the right way”
Activity #1• Select an appropriate “stop” signal for your
school.– How might you include students in defining
this signal?– Ensure that the “stop” signal include BOTH a
verbal and physical component.
Step #4: Individual Student Support
• Support for Students who are aggressive
– Individualized assessment
– Family support– Teach appropriate
social skills– Isolate from deviant
peer group.
• Support for Students who are frequent “victims”
– Redefine roles– Re-teach respectful
behavior– Teach social skills– Embed student in
constructive peer groups.

Embedding Bully-Proofing: One Example
• How Bully-Proofing was taught in one school
• How data were recorded
• Current status of research effort
How it was taught• School Rules:
– Be Safe, Be Kind, Be Responsible
• Problem Behaviors– Basketball, Four square, In between
• Why do kids do it?
• Stop, Walk, Talk
How data were recorded• When problem behavior was reported, staff follow a
specific school-wide response:
1. Reinforce the student for reporting the problem behavior (i.e. "I'm glad you told me.")
2. "Did you tell the student to stop?" (If yes, praise the student for using an appropriate response)
3. "Did you walk away from the problem behavior?" (If yes, praise student for using appropriate response)
How data are recorded• When students report problem behavior appropriately,
staff initiate to following response with student accused of inappropriate behavior:
1. "Did ______ tell you to stop?"» If yes: "How did you respond?" Follow with step 2» If no: Practice the 3 step response.
2. "Did ______ walk away?"» If yes: "How did you respond?" Follow with step 3» If no: Practice the 3 step response.
3. Practice the 3 step response.
