Mark D. Samudre; Lauren M. LeJeune; Eric J. Anderson; Jacqueline A. Viotto; Matthew E. Brock; Hannah Nichols – Exceptional Children, 2024
The success of teachers is tied to their effectiveness in managing student behavior. In this meta-analysis, we identified 49 single-case-design studies that evaluated the effectiveness of teacher training on their implementation of behavioral support strategies. Training was most often provided in a one-on-one format (n = 18) and included ongoing…

Floress, Margaret T.; Zoder-Martell, Kimberly A.; Beaudoin, Melissa M.; Yehling, Zachary R. – Preventing School Failure, 2021
Few studies have examined teachers' natural use of praise and reprimand in the absence of training, possibly due to the challenges of live data collection. This study sought to determine the feasibility of using technology to examine teachers' use of praise and reprimand during class-wide and small group instruction in four elementary classrooms.…

Kelly M. Schieltz; David P. Wacker; Alyssa N. Suess; Jessica E. Graber; Nicole H. Lustig; Jessica Detrick – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2020
The prevalence of students with behavioral problems who also have learning problems has been reported to be as high as 50% (Glassberg et al. "Behavioral Disorders," 25, 9-21, 1999). In the current study, we progressively evaluated the effects of positive reinforcement, instructional strategies, and, if needed, negative reinforcement on…

Caldarella, Paul; Larsen, Ross A. A.; Williams, Leslie; Wills, Howard P.; Wehby, Joseph H. – Education and Treatment of Children, 2019
Students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) often receive low rates of teacher praise and high rates of teacher reprimands, though they may respond more positively to praise and more negatively to reprimands than their typically developing peers. Teacher praise-to-reprimand ratios (PRRs) are associated with increased student engagement,…

Howard P. Wills; Paul Caldarella; Leslie Williams; Kandace Fleming; Pei-Yu Chen – Grantee Submission, 2021
Middle school is a cornerstone for success in high school. However, cognitive, emotional, and behavioral engagement of adolescents often decline as they transition from elementary to middle school, resulting in lower school grades and more challenging behaviors, especially for adolescents with or at risk for emotional and behavioral disorders…

Downs, Kade R.; Caldarella, Paul; Larsen, Ross A. A.; Charlton, Cade T.; Wills, Howard P.; Kamps, Debra M.; Wehby, Joseph H. – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2019
In the United States, many teachers feel underprepared to manage student classroom behavior positively. Such management is crucial for students to learn effectively, especially those with or at risk of emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD). Although increasing teacher praise and decreasing teacher reprimands may be research-based practices,…

Oakes, Wendy Peia; Lane, Kathleen Lynne; Hirsch, Shanna Eisner – Preventing School Failure, 2018
It can be challenging for educators to select intervention tactics based on the function of the student's behavior. In this article, authors offer practical information on behavioral function and environmental-focused intervention ideas for educators developing behavior intervention plans. Ideas are organized according to the hypothesized function…

Kimberly Davis Monson – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Classroom management is a common challenge in middle schools. Class-wide Function-Related Intervention Teams (CW-FIT) is a multi-tiered intervention designed to decrease problem behaviors at the classroom level (Wills et al., 2010). It is comprised of evidence-based practices such as teaching classroom expectations, increasing teacher praise, and…

Lipschultz, Joshua L.; Wilder, David A. – Education and Treatment of Children, 2017
Noncompliance is a common behavior problem exhibited by typically developing children, as well as individuals with intellectual disabilities, and is correlated with a number of psychiatric diagnoses later in life. We begin this manuscript by describing the definition and prevalence of noncompliance. We then review the assessment procedures that…

Wendy M. Reinke; Keith C. Herman; Lori Newcomer – Grantee Submission, 2016
Measures that can be used to identify malleable, dynamic indicators of teacher practices that lead to or are associated with student outcomes are needed to inform classroom interventions and consultation practices with teachers. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and validate the Brief Student-Teacher Classroom Interaction Observation in…

Sprouls, Katie; Mathur, Sarup R.; Upreti, Gita – Preventing School Failure, 2015
Although using higher rates of positive to negative feedback is one best practice often recommended to teachers, particularly when it comes to students experiencing behavioral problems in classroom settings, research on the use of positive feedback in classroom teaching practice has revealed inconsistent results. Research has documented…

White, Rachel L. – ProQuest LLC, 2010
Many authors recommend various praise to reprimand ratios for teachers to use to manage their classrooms (e.g., Flora, 2000; Nafpaktitis, Mayer, & Butterworth, 1985; Wheldall, 2005); however, these recommendations are based on correlational data or secondary findings from studies not directly manipulating the praise to reprimand ratio. The…

Addison, Laura; Lerman, Dorothea C. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2009
The procedures described by Sloman et al. (2005) were extended to an analysis of teachers' responses to problem behavior after they had been taught to withhold potential sources of positive and negative reinforcement following instances of problem behavior. Results were consistent with those reported previously, suggesting that escape from child…
