Research
1.
PBS, implemented with fidelity, results in a reduction of office discipline referrals and suspensions and is associated with academic gains in reading and math.
(Muscott, Mann, LeBrun 2008)
2.
Schools implementing SWPBS scored higher on state reading tests than non-PBS schools. (FLPBS Project, 2007; Horner, Sugai,
Todd, Lewis-Palmer, 2005; Horner, Sugai, Eber, Lewandowski, 2004)
3.
Academic success is intrinsically linked to behavioral success.
(Witt, VanDerHeyden, Gilbertson, 2004).
4.
Efforts to establish school-wide PBS are associated with increases in student time-in-school. (Scott & Barrett, 2004)
5. SWPBS increases attendance. ( Luiselli, Putnam, Sunderland, 2002)
1. Aims to build effective environments where positive behavior is more effective than problem behavior
2. Collaborative, assessment-based approach to developing effective interventions for problem behavior.
3. Emphasizes the use of prevention, teaching, and reinforcement-based strategies to achieve meaningful and durable behavior and lifestyle outcomes

Research
1.
Time out of class for behavior issues negatively impacts a student ’s academic engaged time (AET). (
Skiba, Peterson, 2003)
2.
Amount of instructional time is highly correlated with student achievement. (Putnam, Horner, Algozzine, 2006)
3. Classroom PBS increases the amount of academic instructional time by 57% and the amount of on-task behavior by 24%.
(Putnam, Handler, O’Leary-Zonarich, 2003; Putnam, Handler,
Rey, O’Leary-Zonarich, 2002)
4. Evidence-based behavior strategies, implemented with fidelity, result in positive student outcomes in the classroom.
(Simonsen, Myers, DeLuca, 2010; Christenson, Reschly,
Appleton, et.al., 2008)
16
1. >2-3 students off-task at one time
2. >10% of the students have incomplete assignments
3. Students need constant reminders to follow classroom rules
4. Disruptive behaviors occur more than once per hour and interfere with teaching and learning
17
80/20 Rule
