Numerous studies have proven that effective implementation of Positive Behavior Support systems bring about substantial beneficial changes and a great deal of positive effects.

Why is positive behavior support effective?

Positive behavior support offers a holistic approach that considers all factors that have an impact on a child and the child’s behavior. It can be used to address problem behaviors that range from aggression, tantrums, and property destruction to social withdrawal.

How effective is PBIS?

As in the findings of other research, the participants in the current study reported that PBIS implementation was specifically effective at reducing students’ problem behaviors (i.e., the number of ODRs and suspensions), as well as improving students’ education environment and academic outcomes.
