Three generations of developmental epidemiologically based randomized field trials of the Good Behavior Game (GBG) have been delivered to Baltimore elementary schools. With the collaboration of family and community partners, all three trials were directed at decreasing proximal targets of aggressive behavior and improving learning in first-grade…

Watts, Gavin W.; Bryant, Diane Pedrotty; Roberts, Garrett J. – Journal of Emotional and Behavioral Disorders, 2020
Challenges with numerical proficiency at an early age can lead to substantial gaps in learning and are associated with detrimental long-term outcomes. In addition, students with emotional-behavioral disorders (EBD) can have some of the most challenging behavioral and academic needs to address. The purpose of this study was to identify the effects…

Donaldson, Jeanne M.; Matter, Ashley L.; Wiskow, Katie M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2018
The Good Behavior Game (GBG) is a classwide group contingency shown to reduce disruptive student behavior. We examined the feasibility of training young students to lead the GBG in one first-grade and three kindergarten classes. We also examined teacher preference for teacher-led GBG, student-led GBG, or no GBG using a concurrent chains procedure.…

The Good Behaviour Game (GBG) is one of the most popular behaviour management systems for primary-aged children. It has an extensive evidence base supporting its use. The GBG itself can be described as an "interdependent group-oriented contingency management procedure." A major efficacy trial of the GBG in England was conducted that…

Donaldson, Jeanne M.; Wiskow, Katie M.; Soto, Paul L. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2015
The Good Behavior Game (GBG) has been demonstrated to reduce disruptive student behavior during implementation. The effects of playing the GBG on disruption immediately before and after the GBG are unknown. The current study evaluated the effects of the GBG on disruption in 5 kindergarten classes immediately before, during, and after GBG…

Kim, James S.; Asher, Catherine A.; Burkhauser, Mary; Mesite, Laura; Leyva, Diana – AERA Open, 2019
This study employs a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) design to develop an adaptive intervention with personalized print and digital content for kindergarten to Grade 2 children (n = 273). In Stage 1, we ask whether it is better for children to receive an adaptive intervention based on (a) 10 conceptually coherent texts or…

Radley, Keith C.; Dart, Evan H.; O'Handley, Roderick D. – School Psychology Review, 2016
The current study investigated the effectiveness of the Quiet Classroom Game, an interdependent group contingency using an iPad loaded with a decibel meter app, for increasing academically engaged behavior. Three first-grade classrooms in the southeastern United States, identified as displaying high levels of noise and disruptive behavior, were…

Kurki, Anja; Wang, Wei; Li, Yibing; Poduska, Jeanne – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2013
The Good Behavior Game (GBG) is a classroom-based behavior management strategy aimed at reducing aggressive/disruptive behavior and socializing children into the role of student. GBG, delivered in first and second grades, has been shown to reduce rates of substance abuse and other deleterious outcomes into young adulthood (Brown, C.H. et al 2007,…
