Journal of Educational Research, 104, Viewed as outcomes, achievement and behavior are related; viewed as causes of each other, achievement and behavior are unrelated. In this context, teaching behavior as relentlessly as we teach reading or other academic content is the ultimate act of prevention, promise, and power underlying PBS and other preventive interventions in America s schools.

Prevention Prevention Logic for All Biglan, 1995; Mayer, 1995; Walker et al., 1996 Decrease development of new problem behaviors Prevent worsening & reduce intensity of existing problem behaviors Eliminate triggers & maintainers of problem behaviors Teach, monitor, & acknowledge prosocial behavior Redesign of teaching environments not students

10 Implementation Phases Where are you in implementation process? Adapted from Fixsen & Blase, 2005 EXPLORATION & ADOPTION We think we know what we need, so we ordered 3 month free trial (evidencebased) INSTALLATION INITIAL IMPLEMENTATION FULL IMPLEMENTATION Let s make sure we re ready to implement (capacity infrastructure) Let s give it a try & evaluate (demonstration) That worked, let s do it for real (investment) SUSTAINABILITY & Let s make it our way of doing business CONTINUOUS REGENERATION (institutionalized use) 23 Successful Organizations Effective Social & Academic School Culture Common Language SWPBS Common Experience Common Vision/Values 25

11 A Behavioral Perspective of Culture & Context Culture is the extent to which a group of individuals engage in overt & verbal behavior reflecting shared behavioral learning histories, serving to differentiate the group from other groups, & predicting how individuals within the group act in specific setting conditions. That is, culture reflects a collection of common verbal & overt behaviors that are learned & maintained by a set of similar social & environmental contingencies (i.e., learning history). Emphasis is on applied settings with recognition that group membership is (a) flexible & dynamic, & (b) changed & shaped over time, across generations, & from one setting to another.
