Responsiveness-to-Intervention and School-Wide Positive Behavior Supports: Integration of Multi-Tiered System Approaches

George Sugai, Robert H. Horner · 11 Oct 2009

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and No Child Left Behind emphasize the use of scientifically based research to improve outcomes for students. From this emphasis, response-to-intervention has evolved. We present one perspective on the defining features of response-to-intervention and application of those features to school-wide positive behavior supports (SWPBS). We suggest that the initial…

Christine A. Christle, Kristine Jolivette, C. Michael Nelson · 1 Jun 2005

How to Summarize Single-Participant Research: Ideas and Applications

Thomas E. Scruggs, Margo A. Mastropieri · 1 Dec 2001

This article describes the need for systematic methods for summarizing single-participant research, describes various approaches for quantitative synthesis, and reviews conclusions of completed synthesis efforts. There is general, but not universal, agreement for the need for systematic literature-review procedures. Areas of disagreement center around the issue of whether outcomes of single-participant research studies can be…
