School-Based Observation by Amy M. Briesch,Robert J. Volpe,Randy G. Floyd Pdf

"This book is divided into three main sections. The first section, Foundations of Direct Observation, is intended to provide readers with the basic conceptual foundations of direct observation. We review the basic considerations involved in conducting school-based observations (Chapter 2), describe the most important indicators of high-quality observation methods (Chapter 3), and suggest guidelines for maximizing the reliability and validity of decisions based on observation data (Chapter 4). The second section, Specific Observational Codes, then moves from a general discussion of the overall assessment method to a more specific discussion of extant codes that are available for specific purposes. A number of evidence-based observation codes that were designed to assess student behavior in classroom settings (Chapter 5), the classroom environment (Chapter 6), student behavior in non-classroom settings (Chapter 7), and both student behavior the environmental context within functional assessment (Chapter 8) are introduced. We provide general guidelines for developing a unique code in Chapter 9, as well as a library of operational definitions and a range of sample coding forms within the appendices. The third and final section, Using Assessment Data to Inform Decision Making and Intervention, consists of one chapter focused on what to do once observational data have been collected"--

Behavioral Assessment in Schools by Thomas R Kratochwill, Ed. PhD,Professor Edward S Shapiro, PhD Pdf

The assessment of children and adolescents from a behavioral perspective has evolved into a state-of-the-art practice among school professionals. Now in a revised and expanded second edition, this landmark text was the first to address systematically the issues involved in developing behavioral assessment strategies for educational rather than clinical settings. The theoretical and conceptual underpinnings of a wide range of methods are discussed, and their strengths and limitations for assessing emotional/behavioural difficulties and academic skills problems are evaluated. Bringing the field fully up to date, the second edition incorporates important new instruments, refinements of observational strategies, computer applications, and emerging concepts in assessment. Many chapters have new authorship, and entirely new chapters deal with legal and professional issues, decision-making processes in educational diagnosis, culturally sensitive assessment practices, and curriculum-based assessment of academic skills problems. Practitioners planning to implement the techniques described in this volume may also wish to purchase the companion book, Conducting School-Based Assessments Of Child and Adolescent Behaviour, which features case illustrations and detailed guidelines for practice.

Behavioral Interventions in Schools by Angeleque Akin-Little Pdf

This book provides school psychologists, counselors, social workers, school administrators, and teachers with a summary of ecologically sound primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention strategies. The contributors cover fundamentals such as how to conduct a behavioral assessment, how to measure treatment integrity and response to intervention, and how to promote generalization and maintenance of learned positive behaviors. They also discuss prevention measures such as positive behavior support and group contingencies that schools can implement system-wide. Several chapters describe more narrowly focused interventions such as daily report cards and self modeling, while the final section explains how to customize behavioral strategies for special populations such as preschoolers; children with autism, internalizing, or externalizing disorders; and those who have experienced trauma.
