SWPBS is about….
Context Matters!
Examples
Individual Student
vs.
School-wide
“Reiko”
Assessments indicate that Reiko performs in average to above average range in most academic areas. However, her teacher has noticed Reiko’s frequent talking & asking & answering questions without raising her hand has become an annoying problem to other students & to teacher.
What would you do?
“Kiyoshi”Kiyoshi is a highly competent student, but has long history of antisocial behavior. He is quick to anger, & minor events quickly escalate to major confrontations. He has few friends, & most of his conflicts occur with peers in hallways & cafeteria & on bus. In last 2 months, he has been given 8 days of in school detention & 6 days of out of school suspension. In a recent event, he broke glasses of another student.
What would you do?
“Mitch”Mitch displays a number of stereotypic (e.g., light filtering with his fingers, head rolling) & self-injurious behaviors (e.g., face slapping, arm biting), & his communications are limited to a verbal vocabulary of about 25 words. When his usual routines are changed or items are not in their usual places, his rates of stereotypic & self-injurious behavior increase quickly.
What would you do?
“Rachel”Rachel dresses in black every day, rarely interacts with teachers or other students, & writes & distributes poems & stories about witchcraft, alien nations, gundams, & other science fiction topics. When approached or confronted by teachers, she pulls hood of her black sweatshirt or coat over her head & walks away. Mystified by Rachel’s behavior, teachers usually shake their heads & let her walk away. Recently, Rachel carefully wrapped a dead squirrel in black cloth & placed it on her desk. Other students became frightened when she began talking to it.
What would you do?
Fortunately, we have a science that guides us to…
• Assess these situations
• Develop behavior intervention plans based on our assessment
• Monitor student progress & make enhancements
All in ways that can be culturally & contextually appropriate
Crone & Horner, 2003
However, context matters….
What factors influence our ability to implement what we know with accuracy, consistency, & durability for students like Rachel, Reiko, Mitch, & Kiyoshi?
“159 Days!”Intermediate/senior high school with 880 students reported over 5,100 office discipline referrals in one academic year. Nearly 2/3 of students have received at least one office discipline referral.
Reiko is in this
school!
5,100 referrals =
76,500 min @15 min =
1,275 hrs =
159 days @ 8 hrs
“Da place ta be”
During 4th period, in-school detention room has so many students that the overflow is sent to the counselor’s office. Most students have been assigned for being in the hallways after the late bell.
Kiyoshi is in this
school!
“Cliques”
During Advisory Class, the “sportsters” sit in the back of the room, & “goths” sit at the front. Most class activities result in out of seat, yelling arguments between the two groups.
Mitch is in this
classroom!
“Four corners”
Three rival gangs are competing for “four corners.” Teachers actively avoid the area. Because of daily conflicts, vice principal has moved her desk to four corners.
Rachel is in this
school!
“FTD”
On 1st day of school, a teacher found “floral” arrangement on his desk. “Welcome to the neighborhood” was written on the card
You are in this
School!
Questions!• What would behavior support look
like if Mitch, Rachel, Kiyoshi, & Reiko were in these classrooms & schools?
• Are these environments safe, caring, & effective?
Context Matters!
2 Worries & Ineffective Responses to Problem
Behavior
• Get Tough (practices)
• Train-&-Hope (systems)
Worry #1“Teaching” by Getting Tough
Runyon: “I hate this f____ing school, & you’re a dumbf_____.”
Teacher: “That is disrespectful language. I’m sending you to the office so you’ll learn never to say those words again….starting now!”
Immediate & seductive solution….”Get Tough!”
• Clamp down & increase monitoring
• Re-re-re-review rules
• Extend continuum & consistency of consequences
• Establish “bottom line”
...Predictable individual response
Reactive responses are predictable….
When we experience aversive situation, we want select interventions that produce immediate relief
– Remove student
– Remove ourselves
– Modify physical environment
– Assign responsibility for change to student &/or others
When behavior doesn’t improve, we “Get Tougher!”
• Zero tolerance policies
• Increased surveillance
• Increased suspension & expulsion
• In-service training by expert
• Alternative programming
…..Predictable systems response!
Erroneous assumption that student…
• Is inherently “bad”
• Will learn more appropriate behavior through increased use of “aversives”
• Will be better tomorrow…….
But….false sense of safety/security!
• Fosters environments of control
• Triggers & reinforces antisocial behavior
• Shifts accountability away from school
• Devalues child-adult relationship
• Weakens relationship between academic & social behavior programming
Science of behavior has taught us that students….
• Are NOT born with “bad behaviors”
• Do NOT learn when presented contingent aversive consequences
……..Do learn better ways of behaving by being taught directly & receiving positive feedback
VIOLENCE PREVENTION
• Surgeon General’s Report on Youth Violence (2001)
• Coordinated Social Emotional & Learning (Greenberg et al., 2003)
• Center for Study & Prevention of Violence (2006)
• White House Conference on School Violence (2006)
• Positive, predictable school-wide climate
• High rates of academic & social success
• Formal social skills instruction
• Positive active supervision & reinforcement
• Positive adult role models
• Multi-component, multi-year school-family-community effort
