积极行为干预和支持 (PBIS) 是一种普遍的、全校范围的预防策略,目前已在 7,500 多所学校实施,以减少破坏性行为问题。本研究利用在 37 所小学进行的 PBIS 分组随机对照有效性试验数据,探讨了 PBIS 对教职员工关于学校组织健康状况的报告的影响。对 2,596 名教职员工数据的纵向多层次分析显示,在为期 5 年的试验中,PBIS 对学校的整体组织健康、资源影响、教职员工归属感和学术重点产生了显着影响;当模型中包含执行忠诚度时,对学院领导和机构诚信的影响是显着的。最快采用 PBIS 的受训学校往往在基线上具有较高的组织健康水平,但较晚实施的学校往往在实施 PBIS 后在组织健康方面获得最大的改善。这项研究表明,学校组织健康的变化是 PBIS 全校预防模式的重要后果,并且可能反过来成为 PBIS 对学生表现影响的潜在背景中介因素。
Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is a universal, school-wide prevention strategy that is currently implemented in over 7,500 schools to reduce disruptive behavior problems. The present study examines the impact of PBIS on staff reports of school organizational health using data from a group-randomized controlled effectiveness trial of PBIS conducted in 37 elementary schools. Longitudinal multilevel analyses on data from 2,596 staff revealed a significant effect of PBIS on the schools' overall organizational health, resource influence, staff affiliation, and academic emphasis over the 5-year trial; the effects on collegial leadership and institutional integrity were significant when implementation fidelity was included in the model. Trained schools that adopted PBIS the fastest tended to have higher levels of organizational health at baseline, but the later-implementing schools tended to experience the greatest improvements in organizational health after implementing PBIS. This study indicated that changes in school organizational health are important consequences of the PBIS whole-school prevention model, and may in turn be a potential contextual mediator of the effect of PBIS on student performance.
