Abstract

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is a universal, school-wide prevention strategy that is currently implemented in over 7,500 schools across the nation to reduce disruptive behavior problems through the application of behavioral, social learning, and organizational behavioral principles. PBIS aims to alter school environments by creating improved systems and procedures that promote positive change in student behavior by targeting staff behaviors. The present study examined the impact of PBIS on school organizational health using data from a large randomized controlled trial of PBIS conducted in 37 elementary schools. Longitudinal multilevel analyses on data from 2,507 staff revealed a significant effect of PBIS on staff reports of the schools’ overall organizational health, resource influence, and staff affiliation over a 3-year period. This study indicated that changes in school organizational health are important consequences of the PBIS whole-school prevention model, and might in turn be a potential mediator of the effect of PBIS on student performance.

学校积极行为干预与支持对小学组织健康的影响。

积极行为干预和支持(PBIS)是一种普遍的、全校范围的预防策略，目前在全国7500多所学校实施，通过应用行为、社会学习和组织行为原则来减少破坏性行为问题。PBIS旨在通过创建改进的系统和程序来改变学校环境，通过针对员工的行为来促进学生行为的积极变化。本研究利用在37所小学进行的一项大型随机对照试验的数据，检验了公共关系服务对学校组织健康的影响。对2,507名教职员工数据的纵向多水平分析显示，在3年的时间里，PBIS对教职员工关于学校整体组织健康、资源影响和教职员工隶属关系的报告有显著影响。本研究表明，学校组织健康的变化是PBIS全校预防模式的重要结果，并可能反过来成为PBIS对学生表现影响的潜在中介。
