Horner, Robert H.; Ward, Caryn S.; Fixsen, Dean L.; Sugai, George; McIntosh, Kent; Putnam, Robert; Little, Hannah D. – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2019
We propose in this article that a central element in the large-scale implementation of evidence-based practices is the process by which initial investment in local demonstrations is leveraged into larger implementation efforts. We offer a definition of this "resource leveraging" and propose a process for both measuring and reporting the…

McIntosh, Kent; Mercer, Sterett H.; Nese, Rhonda N.T.; Strickland-Cohen, M. Kathleen; Kittelman, Angus; Hoselton, Robert; Horner, Robert H. – Grantee Submission, 2018
In this 3-year prospective study, we tested the extent to which school-, practice-, and district-level variables predicted sustained implementation for schools in various stages of implementation of school-wide positive behavioral interventions and supports (SWPBIS) Tier 1 (universal) systems. Staff from 860 schools in 14 U.S. states completed a…

Conley, Kathleen M.; Horner, Robert H.; McIntosh, Kent – Technical Assistance Center on Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports, 2019
A core feature of Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is the collection, summary, and use of data for iterative decision-making. The initial design of support and the adaptations that make behavior support match cultural, organizational, and personal needs require that a support team have functional information to guide…

McIntosh, Kent; Massar, Michelle M.; Algozzine, Robert F.; George, Heather Peshak; Horner, Robert H.; Lewis, Timothy J.; Swain-Bradway, Jessica – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2017
Full and durable implementation of school-based interventions is supported by regular evaluation of fidelity of implementation. Multiple assessments have been developed to evaluate the extent to which schools are applying the core features of school-wide positive behavioral interventions and supports (SWPBIS). The "SWPBIS Tiered Fidelity…

McIntosh, Kent; Lucyshyn, Joseph M.; Strickland-Cohen, M. Kathleen; Horner, Robert H. – Grantee Submission, 2015
Effective behavior support is achieved through designing supportive environments. However, it is common to overlook the context of implementation when designing support for individuals. This lack of attention to the broader context (e.g., behavior of peers, school resources, capacity of family members to use recommended strategies) may lead to…
