What Works Clearinghouse Rating
Catharine Lory; Emily Gregori – Behavioral Disorders, 2024
Systematic reviews of single-case experimental research (SCER) in special education often use the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) Standards to assess the methodological rigor of studies within a given literature base. While significant changes were made between the two most recent versions of the WWC standards, no research to date has evaluated the…

Grasley-Boy, Nicolette M.; Reichow, Brian; van Dijk, Wilhelmina; Gage, Nicholas – Behavioral Disorders, 2021
Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is a multitiered system of support for behavior used in many schools across the world. Researchers have begun adapting and evaluating Tier 1 of PBIS for students placed in alternative education (AE) settings. The purpose of this review is to synthesize these evaluations. We systematically…

Non-compliance is a challenge for practitioners serving children with and without disabilities. Many interventions have been developed to increase compliance. High-probability request sequences (HPRS), an antecedent-based intervention that is based on behavioral momentum theory, is one way to increase compliant behavior. HPRS includes the…

Talbott, Elizabeth; Zurheide, Jaime L.; Karabatsos, George; Kumm, Skip – Behavioral Disorders, 2021
Valid and reliable teacher ratings serve as the foundation for screening and assessment of youth with behavioral disorders and twin studies offer an opportunity to study those ratings. We conducted a meta-analysis of 15 empirical investigations of aggressive and rule-breaking behavior using teacher ratings in the context of a twin research design.…

Behavior-specific praise (BSP) is a low-intensity strategy widely used to encourage appropriate behavior. We sought to explore the vast literature base for BSP, which spans 50 years, to better understand for whom and under what conditions BSP has demonstrated effectiveness. We conducted a comprehensive review of school-based intervention studies…

Allen, Grant Edmund; Common, Eric Alan; Germer, Kathryn A.; Lane, Kathleen Lynne; Buckman, Mark Matthew; Oakes, Wendy Peia; Menzies, Holly Mariah – Behavioral Disorders, 2020
Active supervision is a proactive, low-intensity strategy to minimize challenging behaviors and increase desired behaviors. To examine the evidence base of this strategy, we applied the Council for Exceptional Children's (CEC) "Standards for Evidence-Based Practices in Special Education" to the body of research exploring the impact of…

Common, Eric Alan; Bross, Leslie Ann; Oakes, Wendy Peia; Cantwell, Emily Dawn; Lane, Kathleen Lynne; Germer, Kathryn Ann – Behavioral Disorders, 2019
We conducted this systematic review to classify the evidence-base status for high-probability request sequence (HPRS) as a strategy to improve students' behavioral outcomes in general and special education settings across the K-12 continuum. Specifically, the purpose of this review was to determine whether HPRS could be classified as an…

Ennis, Robin Parks; Royer, David James; Lane, Kathleen Lynne; Dunlap, Kristin Diane – Behavioral Disorders, 2020
In this systematic literature review, we examined the effects of coaching (e.g., written, emailed, visual, video, and self-monitored performance feedback; in vivo bug-in-ear prompting; combinations) teachers and other educators to increase their use of behavior-specific praise, a low-intensity teacher-delivered strategy previously determined to be…

Bruhn, Allison L.; McDaniel, Sara C.; Fernando, Josephine; Troughton, Leonard – Behavioral Disorders, 2016
Students with persistent behavior problems, including those with or at risk for emotional or behavioral disorders, often struggle to be self-regulated learners. To improve self-regulation skills, numerous strategies have been suggested, including goal setting. Whereas goal setting has focused mostly on academic and life skills, behavioral goal…

Royer, David J.; Lane, Kathleen Lynne; Cantwell, Emily D.; Messenger, Mallory L. – Behavioral Disorders, 2017
We conducted this systematic literature review to explore the current evidence base of instructional choice, a low-intensity, teacher-delivered strategy to support academic engagement and decrease challenging behaviors. Specifically, we focused on school-based settings, applying quality indicators (QIs) and evidence-based standards of the Council…

Wood, Brenna K.; Oakes, Wendy Peia; Fettig, Angel; Lane, Kathleen Lynne – Behavioral Disorders, 2015
This review of the literature was conducted to explore the evidence base for functional assessment-based interventions (FABIs) for one systematic approach developed by Umbreit, Ferro, Liaupsin, and Lane (2007). Specifically, this review examined the evidence base for this systematic approach to FABI for young students by applying quality…

Nelson, J. Ron; And Others – Behavioral Disorders, 1991
Sixteen studies of self-management with students who have behavioral disorders are reviewed. Procedures involving self-instruction, self-evaluation, self-recording, and combinations are examined. Results indicate the effectiveness of the procedures in promoting social and academic behaviors and the need to systematically program for…

Maag, John W. – Behavioral Disorders, 2006
Teaching social skills to students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) has become an accepted practice. Literally hundreds of social skills training (SST) efficacy studies for students with EBD appear in the literature. As a result, many authors have published both narrative and meta-analytic reviews of the literature. Reviews have…

Rivera, Mabel O.; Al-Otaiba, Stephanie; Koorland, Mark A. – Behavioral Disorders, 2006
Frequently, students with emotional and behavior disorders (EBD) exhibit academic underachievement combined with high levels of externalizing behaviors and resistance to instructional efforts. Regardless of the present reading initiatives, research focusing on interventions for teaching reading to students with EBD continues to be limited. This…

Bauer, Anne M.; Sapona, Regina H. – Behavioral Disorders, 1988
Current approaches to instruction of students with autism and severe behavioral disorders are reviewed, specifically the behavioral framework and the community adaptation framework. In contrast to such approaches, which overemphasize teacher control over student behavior, a facilitative approach to enhancing students' communicative competence is…
