The involvement of former extremists in preventing and countering violent extremism has attracted many advocates. Interventions in school settings by or with former extremists have been commonplace for a long time, and in some countries even for decades, which is reason enough to focus on the current research state. We did this through a synoptic…

This meta-analysis evaluated experimental studies testing the effectiveness of the "Self-Determined Learning Model of Instruction" (SDLMI) to improve the academic and nonacademic behaviors of students with disabilities. A total of 19 single-case experimental design studies and four group design studies met inclusion criteria. Overall,…

Physical restraint is a restrictive practice used in schools across the UK and there have been recent concerns around the appropriateness and frequency of using this intervention with pupils. Current data suggest that pupils with Special Educational Needs (SEN), a vulnerable and diverse group, are experiencing the majority of physical restraint…

Background: Schools play a vital role in student health, and a collaborative approach may affect health factors such as physical activity (PA) and nutrition. There is a lack of recent literature synthesizing collaborative approaches in K-12 settings. We present updated evidence about interventions that used a coordinated school health approach to…

Positive behavior interventions and supports (PBIS) is a three-tiered framework shown to improve student behavioral outcomes. There has been considerable investment in scaling up Tier 1 PBIS but less focus on scaling Tier 2 supports. Having greater insight into teachers,' students,' and families' perceptions regarding the social validity of Tier 2…

Academic procrastination is a behaviour that delays the completion of tasks, time management or other academic activities. However, it is possible to develop interventions that eliminate or minimise this procrastinating behaviour. This study presents a systematic review of the literature following the PRISMA method guidelines, with the aim of…

The objective of this review is to establish whether or not existing school-based antibullying programs are effective in reducing school-bullying behaviors. This report also updates a previous meta-analysis conducted by Farrington and Ttofi. This earlier review found that antibullying programs are effective in reducing bullying perpetration and…

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…

This systematic review and meta-analysis explores the effectiveness of teacher interventions supporting children with externalizing behaviors based on teacher and child outcomes. A systematic search was conducted using 5 electronic databases. From 5714 papers, 31 papers that included interventions delivered directly to teachers and aimed to…

In 2007, Randolph conducted a meta-analysis of response-card articles to determine the effect of response cards on test achievement, quiz achievement, class participation, and off-task behavior. This meta-analysis is an update of that analysis, including new studies conducted in the last 12 years. A total of 15 studies published between 2005 and…

Objective: This study aims to critically review the characteristics and effectiveness of university-based intervention to promote safer sex practice. Participants and Methods: The published studies were selected from 5 databases with the publication year restricted between 1974 and 2018. The data were then pooled using a random-effect…

Background: There have been several studies that involved technology-based self-monitoring procedures to increase on-task behavior. Although there are continued advancements in technology application such as functions that are embedded in the application (e.g., reinforcement, feedback), the appropriate use of technology is required to be…

Evidence-based practices (EBPs) are strategies shown through rigorous experimentation to be effective when implemented as designed by educators in the field. The purpose of this review is to (a) describe the state and quality of evidence-based reviews and meta-analyses of studies on classroom and behavior management interventions for students with…

School-wide Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (SWPBIS) is an inclusive multi-tiered system of behavioral supports that has been widely adopted by K-12 schools in the United States. SWPBIS focuses on creating safe, equitable, and inclusive school environments and has been linked to both positive behavioral and academic outcomes for…

This meta-analysis investigates the impact of the "Leader in Me" process on teachers' perceptions of their school climates and student behaviour. Twelve studies involving 198,176 students resulted in an overall effect size of d = 0.20. The effect sizes for student climate (d = 0.34) and student behaviour (d = 0.16) were determined…
