Product Description:

The authors propose six criteria for defining an educational practice and assessing whether the practice is evidence based and then apply these criteria to assessment of School-wide Positive Behavior Support (SWPBS). The authors propose that a sufficiently rigorous and voluminous body of scholarship establishes SWPBS as an evidence-based practice for use in public schools, by typical educational personnel, to decrease problem behavior and promote prosocial behavior.
