Readiness Framework for Behavioral Strategies: Assessing Low-Intensity Approaches Prior to High-Intensity Interventions
Audrey Alberstadt Kennedy; Patricia K. Hampshire
Intervention in School and Clinic, v60 n3 p169-178 2025
Challenging behavior can impact the learning environment and prevent educators and students from demonstrating behavioral and academic success. Schools and districts may implore a framework of tiered systems of support to respond to students struggling behaviorally or academically. These systems provide a decision-making process to aid educators' use of low-intensity strategies before utilizing high-intensity strategies. This process can help school teams use their time and resources efficiently. This article presents a flowchart outlining guiding questions within a problem-solving process as the first step in remedying behavior of concern. This flowchart can be utilized by schools with an existing tiered framework or can support the decision-making process for schools that do not utilize a tiered system of support. A vignette is also included to demonstrate its practical use in the classroom.
