The Hen or the Egg – Do Externalizing Behavior Problems Precede Academic Underachievement?

SW-PBIS since 2013

http://www.4eb.org.au/finnish

Competing models in previous research

  • 1. Underachievement

externalizing behavior

  • 2. Externalizing behavior

underachievement

  • 3. The relationship is reciprocal
  • 4. Underlying, antecedent variables result in both

problem domains

(Hinshaw, 1992)

" To examine the longitudinal relation between academic attainment and externalizing behavior problems (competing models) " During school transition to secondary school (grade 6th 7th) " Considering child- and family-related covariates " Mplus structural equation modeling program was used to test all cross-lagged models

The aim of the study Data

  • Data was collected 2010–2013
  • N=311(52% female)
  • 12–13-year-olds
  • Between grades: transition to

secondary school – new school new teachers

Measures

  • Externalizing behavior: Goodman’s (1997) Strengths &

Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), teacher ratings

  • Combined externalizing scale (
  • Separate conduct disorder (

and hyperactivity/ inattention ( scales

  • Academic performance: general grade point average

(

  • Child-related covariates: gender, special education

support status, standardized reading scores, standardized math test scores

  • Family-related covariates: maternal and paternal

education level, family form

Results & Conclusions

  • Externalizing, especially H/I-type behavior, precedes

loss in academic performance over time

  • The stability of these problems
  • Subscales differ in relation to academic performance
  • These students are at risk for academic problems
  • Without interventions behavior problems may

escalate during secondary school, impact the student’s general academic achievement and future education

Conclusions

  • Research-based behavior assessment and support is needed in schools on

individual, group and school level

  • Especially H/I-group could benefit from more individual interventions

" Future research: gender differences in CD and H/I in relation to academic performance, school transition and behavior problems

THANK YOU! KIITOS!

Implementation of the Bully Prevention in Positive Behavior Support (BP-PBS) Program in an Urban Elementary School

Amanda Rudd & Kwang-Sun Blair University of South Florida

Bullying

! Survey of 512 students in 2002

  • 52% of students knew someone who would be

considered a bully

  • 61% of students reported witnessing bullying at

least once per day ! Approximately 28% of students in the United

States have experienced bullying while in grades 6-12

! Approximately 70% of school staff have

reported to witness bulling by a young person in the school

Good, McIntosh & Gietz (2011) Facts About Bullying (2014)

BP-PBS

! Implemented within SWPBS system ! Focuses on decreasing bullying behavior and

teaching appropriate responses to bullying for victims, bystanders, and educators

! BP-PBS teaches students:

  • School-wide expectations and rules
  • Three-step response (Stop, Walk, and Talk)
  • Responding to three-step response

(Good et al., 2011; Ross & Horner, 2009; 2014)

Purpose of the Study

  • Further test the potential efficacy of BP-PBS intervention in

addressing bullying in a public elementary school implementing SWPBS

  • Examine the extent to which BP-PBS incorporated with FBA

can:

" Decrease bullying of students with peer attention maintained problem behavior " Increase active response to bullying and positive perceptions and attitudes on bullying in student victims

Method

! Participants

  • Six students (3 perpetrators and 3 victims) from three grades

4-5 classrooms

  • Local urban public elementary school
  • Recruited through teacher nomination

! Setting

  • Conducted at the elementary school
  • During normal school hours

" Classroom activities, specials, lunch

Experimental Design and Procedures

! Multiple probe design across participants (Kazdin, 2011) ! Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) ! Teacher and Student Training ! BP-PBS ! Follow-Up

Figure 1. Frequency of bullying across experimental phases, settings, and participants (perpetrators). Figure 2. Percentage of passive responding across experimental phases, settings, and participants (victims). **Blank data spaces = no opportunity** Figure 3. Percentage of intervals of active responding across experimental phases, settings, and participants (victims). **Blank data spaces = no opportunity**

Discussion

! FBA- function peer attention ! BP-PBS

  • Reduction in bullying behavior
  • Increase in appropriate responding
  • Increase feeling of safety/respect at school

! Teacher Fidelity ! Follow-Up

  • 1. Establish a PBIS Team
  • 2. Develop a brief statement of behavioral purpose
  • 3. Identify program-wide behavioral expectations
  • 4. Develop procedures for teaching behavioral

expectations

  • 5. Develop a continuum of procedures for encouraging

children's’ use of behavioral expectations

  • 6. Develop a continuum of procedures for discouraging

children's violations of behavioral expectations

WHAT DO SECONDARY OR TARGETED SUPPORTS LOOK LIKE IN PRESCHOOL SETTINGS?

TIER 2 SUPPORTS APBS 2016 BY: ROBIN DROGAN AND BRENNA WOOD BLOOMSBURG UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA AND LEHIGH UNIVERSITY

ESTABLISHING THE NEED

  • SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF YOUNG CHILDREN PRESENTING

CHALLENGING BEHAVIORS IN PRESCHOOL SETTINGS

  • HIGHER RATES OF SUSPENSION/EXPULSION IN PRESCHOOL

COMPARED SCHOOL AGED SETTINGS

  • PROGRAM-WIDE PBIS HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS A EFFECTIVE

STRATEGY FOR ADDRESSING THESE CONCERNS

3/25/16' 12'

INITIAL SEARCH OF THE LITERATURE….

  • STUDIES OF PROGRAM-WIDE PBIS AND UNIVERSAL SUPPORTS
  • STUDIES OF SOCIAL EMOTIONAL CURRICULA
  • (PATHS; DOMITROVICH, CORTES, & GREENBERG, 2007)
  • FEW STUDIES OF TIER 2 FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE UNRESPONSIVE

TARGETED SUPPORTS: DEFINITION

  • INCLUDE SOCIAL EMOTIONAL REGULATION STRATEGIES
  • FOR STUDENTS WHO NEED MORE INTENSIVE OR EXPLICIT INSTRUCTION
  • FOR STUDENTS WHO MAY BE AT RISK FOR EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL DISORDERS
  • FOR STUDENTS WHO HAVE NOT RESPONDED TO UNIVERSAL SUPPORTS

(BREDEKAMP & COPPLE, 1997; HEMMETER, OSTORSKY, & FOX, 2006; WEBSTER-STRATTON, 1999)

TARGETED SUPPORT: STRATEGIES

  • SOCIAL EMOTIONAL STRATEGIES
  • EMOTIONAL LITERACY
  • EMPATHY
  • FEELINGS
  • PROBLEM SOLVING
  • SELF REGULATION STRATEGIES
  • TURTLE TECHNIQUE WITH PROBLEM SOLVING
  • ENHANCING/INTENSIFIED STRATEGIES
  • PRIMING

TURTLE TECHNIQUE

  • TIER 2 INTERVENTION IMPLEMENTED WITHIN A PBIS PRESCHOOL
  • IMPLEMENTED IN 15-MINUTE SESSIONS WITH THE TEACHER
  • MODELED
  • ROLE PLAY
  • PROBLEM SOLVE
  • READ
  • RESULTS SHOWED REDUCTION IN BEHAVIOR FOR THREE STUDENTS
  • DIRECT OBSERVATION DID NOT SHOW UTILIZATION OF THE STRATEGY

(DROGAN & KERN, 2014)

PRIMING

  • INTENSIFIED STRATEGY WITHIN A PRESCHOOL IMPLEMENTING UNIVERSAL SUPPORTS
  • INTERVENTION CONSISTED OF 10-MINUTE SESSIONS REVIEWING ACADEMIC CONTENT OR

BEHAVIORAL EXPECTATIONS ALTERNATELY BY DAY

  • REVIEWED INFORMATION (EXPECTATIONS OR THEME/CONTENT)
  • QUESTIONED STUDENT ON INFORMATION
  • ADDED INFORMATION THAT MAY HAVE BEEN MISSED BY STUDENT;
  • PRAISED FOR APPROPRIATE RESPONSES
  • RESULTS SHOWED A REDUCTION IN OFF-TASK BEHAVIOR

AFTER BEHAVIORAL PRIMING SESSIONS

SUMMARY

  • WITH UNIVERSAL SUPPORTS IN PLACE, TARGETED SUPPORTS CAN PRESENT ADDITIVE POSITIVE

AFFECTS

  • CONSIDERING THE UNIQUE FEATURES OF EARLY CHILDHOOD PROGRAMS (E.G., AGE GROUP,

ENVIRONMENTS, & STAFF), MORE RESEARCH IS NEEDED.

  • MORE RESEARCH IN WHAT IS CURRENTLY BEING USED IN CLASSROOMS
  • NEED TO BROADEN THE ARRAY OF TOOLS OR STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS STUDENTS WHO ARE

UNRESPONSIVE

RESOURCE MAPPING A resource mapping process was done at the school level to identify the mental health supports provided by the school for youth with different levels of need. Each school answered the following question:

  • What resources are currently in place in
  • ur school?
  • How do students access the resources?
  • How many students have been served by

those resources?

Resource'Mapping'

Tier of Support Name of Program Contact Person Schedule Grade Level Eligibility How to Access # Served

Tier'1' Tier'2' Tier'3' GAP ANALYSIS The gap analysis of the resource mapping data suggested the following trends. 1. Schools that had implemented SW-PBIS for longer periods of time had more supports in place for youth with social/emotional and mental health challenges 2. All schools lacked a range supports for youth who needed targeted (tier 2) and individualized supports (tier 3) 3. None of the schools incorporated the use of a tier 1 social/ emotional learning curriculum
