Interventions to support mainstream schooling for autistic students involve multiple complex considerations. This systematic review, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses standards, aimed to describe inclusive education interventions, their outcomes, and the tools used to measure the outcomes. A total of…

Check-In Check-Out (CICO) is an evidence-based Tier 2 intervention that has most often been used to support students who exhibit externalizing problem behaviors; however, emerging research suggests that CICO may be effective when extended to students who are engaging in internalizing problem behaviors (CICO-IB). The purpose of this study was to…

Within the context of a multi-tiered framework for behavior support, intervention intensification is warranted when a Tier II intervention fails to adequately address a targeted behavior.
