Abstract
Students with or at-risk for emotional and behavioral disorders served in residential facilities have been exposed to traumatic events at higher rates compared to their peers. Behavioral interventions may be more effective for this population if they include trauma-informed relationship building adaptations. One intervention that may be modified to include such adaptations is Check-in, Check-out (CICO). A single-case reversal design was used to examine the effects of Trauma-Informed CICO integrating PRIDE Skills in each check-in and out conversation and the substitution of the daily progress report (DPR) with a student guided self-reflection sheet (TI-CICO+SR). Three students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) and a history of prior traumatic exposures residing in a residential treatment facility participated in this study. Findings indicated a functional relation between TI-CICO and increased on-task behavior for all youth participants and a functional relation between TI-CICO+SR and increased on-task behavior for one youth participant. Youth surveys and interviews indicated TI-CICO+SR had higher social validity compared to TI-CICO. Limitations and future research directions are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Remedial and Special Education (RASE) is devoted to the discussion of issues involving the education of persons for whom typical instruction is not effective. Emphasis is on the interpretation of research literature and recommendations for the practice of remedial and special education. Appropriate topics include, but are not limited to, definition, identification, assessment, characteristics, management, and instruction of underachieving and exceptional children, youth, and adults; related services; family involvement; service delivery systems; legislation; litigation; and professional standards and training.
