Teachers’ and paraprofessionals’ ability to communicate and collaborate are important for guiding supports for their students. The present study examined characteristics affecting the professional relationship of paraprofessional and teacher pairs working within the same classroom across 58 elementary schools. A total of 108 pairs of paraprofessionals and teachers were asked to independently complete a multidimensional assessment of relationship quality, as well as a demographic survey. Findings overall indicate that both classroom teachers and their paraprofessionals rate their relationship qualities favorably, with paraprofessionals rating relationships more positively than teachers (ds = .28 − .34). However, there are differences in relationship ratings by race and ethnicity. Implications are discussed and suggestions are given so that paraprofessionals and teachers can continue to develop positive relationships.

{"title":"Educating Latinx Parents of Children with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial","authors":"Kristina Rios, Christopher Reynoso, Kayla Vivas, Cynthia Ponce","doi":"10.1080/09362835.2023.2269283","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/09362835.2023.2269283","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTFamily-school partnership is an essential component of the special education process for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Latinx families especially face systemic barriers when participating in education decision-making for their children with IDD. However, few interventions have been developed to facilitate and educate Latinx parents of children with IDD. This study presents findings from a pilot randomized controlled trial, testing a 12-hr intervention to educate Latinx parents of children with IDD to advocate for school services – the Families Included in Receiving Better Special Education Services (FIRME) program. Participants included 26 Latinx parents of children with IDD, randomly assigned to a treatment (N = 11) or wait-list control (N = 15). The FIRME program had acceptable feasibility and treatment fidelity. Intervention group participants demonstrated positive changes following the intervention, including significant increases in special education knowledge, advocacy, empowerment, and decreased parental stress. Findings offer promising evidence of advocacy programs for Latinx families of children with IDD. Implications for research including the need for a fully powered randomized controlled trial are discussed; also, to address parental stress, the FIRME program may need to include ongoing supports.KEYWORDS: Advocacy ProgramsLatino familiesChildren with IDDEmpowermentStress Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).","PeriodicalId":46668,"journal":{"name":"Exceptionality","volume":"117 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135511568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I-Connect, a smartphone or web-based self-monitoring tool, has the potential to be an important instrument for promoting independence and access to inclusive academic and workplace environments. The current study used a multi-treatment A-B-A-B-C withdrawal single-case design to determine the effects of peer coaching and a smartphone-based self-monitoring app on the on-task behavior of a college student with autism and intellectual disability. Measurement included the impact of the I-Connect app and peer tutoring in combination with the app and the social validity of the intervention. Findings demonstrated a functional relation for the use of I-Connect with some limitations. The data showed promise for the addition of peer support and were confirmed by a social validity measure. The combination of technology-based self-monitoring supports with the peer supports typically available in inclusive postsecondary education (IPSE) programs can potentially increase key self-determination outcomes. The authors discuss further implications and suggestions for confirming these findings in subsequent inquiries.

Policy and practice measures implemented in Cyprus have primarily focused on addressing problem behaviors at the individual level. Recently, behavior support implementations have occurred at a schoolwide level. This mixed methods study presents the results of two model demonstration sites of Schoolwide Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (SWPBIS) implemented in two elementary schools in Cyprus. Exploration and initial implementation efforts focused on adapting and contextually fitting the SWPBIS primary prevention’s four core features (outcomes, data, practices, systems) to meet the values and needs of Cypriot schools. Intervention components included defining and teaching expected classroom behaviors, acknowledging and reinforcing social expectations, re-directing and correcting social errors, and collecting data to make informed decisions. Treatment fidelity was measured three times throughout the study. Outcome measures included disruptive behavioral incidents and the staff’s social acceptability of intervention components. Results are discussed, and implications for practice in implementing SWPBIS are suggested within the centralized educational context of Cyprus.
