全国各地的学校现在都被鼓励实施全校范围的积极行为支持（PBS）程序，作为改善他们的行为环境、安全和社会文化的一种方式。需要进行研究，以确定（a）学校已经在多大程度上使用全校范围的PBS，（B）如果培训和技术援助的努力导致在使用全校范围的PBS程序的变化，以及（c）如果使用这些程序是相关的安全，社会文化和行为在学校内的价值变化。为了解决这些问题，研究人员需要一个衡量标准来评估全校范围内PBS实践的实施情况。全校评估工具（SET; Sugai，Lewis-Palmer，托德和霍纳，2001年）的创建是为了在全校行为支持中提供严格的初级预防措施。在这篇文章中，作者描述了SET和文件的心理测量学特征。他们的研究结果表明，理工和技术是一个有效、可靠的衡量标准，可用于评估全校培训和技术援助工作的影响。SET也应该是有用的关系的正式分析;使用全校PBS和社会和学术成果的变化之间。
Schools throughout the country are now encouraged to implement school-wide positive behavior support (PBS) procedures as a way to improve their behavioral climate, safety, and social culture. Research is needed to determine (a) the extent to which schools already use school-wide PBS, (b) if training and technical assistance efforts result in change in the use of school-wide PBS procedures, and (c) if use of these procedures is related to valued change in safety, social culture, and behavior within schools. To address these questions, researchers need a metric for assessing implementation of school-wide PBS practices. The School-Wide Evaluation Tool (SET; Sugai, Lewis-Palmer, Todd, & Horner, 2001) was created to provide a rigorous measure of primary prevention practices within school-wide behavior support. In this article, the authors describe the SET and document its psychometric characteristics. The results of their study suggest that the SET is a valid, reliable measure that can be used to assess the impact of school-wide training and technical assistance efforts. The SET should also be useful in formal analyses of the relationship;between use of school-wide PBS and changes in social and academic outcomes.
