Incorporating Brief Functional Behavior Assessments In A Tier Two Behavior Intervention, Larissa Wing

M.S.Ed. in Educational Leadership Research Projects

The purpose of this mixed methods study was to better understand how FBA information could support students who were currently unsuccessful with their existing check in/check out intervention. Teachers were interviewed to both better understand their perceptions of the existing check in/check out system and query their thoughts on the altered intervention. This study further explored the effect(s) that information, obtained from a brief functional behavioral assessment had when incorporated into an existing tier two behavior intervention system. Students’ standardized test scores and frequency of office discipline referrals were also evaluated.
