The Effects of Behavioral Monitoring Programs on Reading Acquisition of Elementary Students with or At-Risk for Emotional or Behavioral DisorderMorgan, Stacy W. 2009 December 1900 (has links)
The Behavior Education Program was implemented with four students at a large
sub-urban elementary school in central Texas. The elementary school has a diverse
population of 750 students and was implementing Tier 1 interventions with 81% fidelity
as measured by the School-wide Evaluation Tool. The BEP was implemented in a
multiple-baseline design. All students’ behavioral improvement was measured through
daily behavior rating scales, office discipline referrals and time sampling data. Academic
engagement was measured through direct observation, DIBELS progress-monitoring and
nine-week grades. Progress on BEP goals was then compared to direct observation data
of on-task behavior and DIBELS data. All three students’ improvement on BEP goals
correlated with an improvement in academic engagement and increased scoring on
DIBELS progress monitoring indicating that progress in the area of behavior is linked to
academic achievement.

Evaluating the Effectiveness and Feasibility of Integrating Self-Monitoring into an Existing Tier II Intervention for Elementary School StudentsParry, Michael 29 September 2014 (has links)
Multi-tiered systems of behavioral support are a promising approach for schools looking to maximize their resources while at the same time ensuring that every student's social and behavioral needs are being met. A commonly used Tier II intervention is Check-in/Check-out (CICO), wherein students check in with an adult before and after school and then receive feedback from their teachers throughout the day using a point card. Although CICO has been well supported through previous research, the intervention does require a fair amount of teacher time after each class period, and it also leaves students entirely reliant on the teacher for feedback regarding their behavioral performance throughout the day. The current study therefore examined the effectiveness and feasibility of integrating self-monitoring into CICO, called Student-Guided CICO (SG-CICO). Three elementary students were taught how to self-monitor their behavior after each class and then compare their ratings to those provided by the teacher. Teacher accuracy checks were faded back once students became consistently accurate with their self-ratings. An ABABC single subject design was used to evaluate the effect SG-CICO had on each participant's on-task and disruptive behavior. Each participant displayed (to varying degrees) increased on-task responding and reductions in disruptive behavior following implementation of SG-CICO. Students reported enjoying their participation in SG-CICO, however the acceptability of SG-CICO was met with mixed reactions from staff. Conceptual implications of these results along with a description of study limitations and directions for future research are provided.

Addressing Internalizing Problems in Middle School Youth With Check In/Check OutBorawska-Popielarz, Malgorzata 01 January 2016 (has links)
More than 20,000 primary- and secondary-level schools, which represent 20% of all schools in the United States, are implementing school-wide positive behavior supports (SWPBS) to enhance socially desirable behavior and promote a decline of problematic behavior among students. The overall efficacy of the 3-tier SWPBS framework is well documented. However, a paucity of empirical research addresses the use of check in/check out (CICO), a Tier 2 intervention, for youth who present as quiet and withdrawn, and who are at risk of academic and social disengagement. Accordingly, this quasi-experimental, nonequivalent groups study assessed the overall effectiveness of CICO and considered the differential effects of conducting a functional behavior assessment (FBA) at the secondary level of SWPBS. Twelve students from 1 middle school formed the convenience sample. Analysis of covariance repeated across time, with the preintervention scores being the covariate, was used to assess between group differences in the students' internalizing behaviors on the Behavior Assessment System for Children-Second Edition (BASC-2) Self-Report, teachers' BASC-2 ratings of adaptive skills, and office discipline referrals. Paired sample t tests were conducted to assess within-group effects. Findings indicate that CICO was an effective intervention for students presenting with a pattern of internalizing behaviors. For participants in the experimental group, a significant effect was found on the functional communication scale. Social change implications include educators having a better understanding of how Tier 2 interventions can be enhanced to meet diverse needs and that inclusion of youth's self-reports is needed when determining effects of supports.

Stimulus fading within check-in/check-outKauffman, Amy Lynne 09 1900 (has links)
xi, 111 p. ; ill. (some col.) A print copy of this title is available through the UO Libraries. Search the library catalog for the location and call number. / To address the growing academic and social needs of students, schools must utilize efficient and effective methods of behavior support. Targeted interventions support students who are at-risk for developing more severe problem behaviors. These interventions are implemented similarly across a group of students, and thus serve as an efficient and cost effective method of behavior support. Check in Check out (CICO) is a targeted group intervention that has a growing research base supporting its efficacy (Crone & Horner, 2003; Todd, Campbell, Meyer, & Horner, 2008). Although there is a growing research base, no studies have examined maintenance of reductions in problem behavior upon fading.
The present study examines (1) if a functional relation exists between CICO and reductions in problem behavior, and (2) which components of CICO can be successfully faded with reductions in problem behavior maintaining. In addition, this study examines if teacher attention varies across phases of the study, and predicts successful fading procedures. A reversal design was used to evaluate the efficacy of CICO and subsequent fading phases in four elementary school aged boys.
Results indicated that CICO was functionally related to reductions in classroom problem behavior in all four participants. In addition, a functional relation was established with CICO and increases in academic achievement in three participants. Fading procedures were mildly successful, with only some intervention components being removed with reductions in problem behavior maintaining. The amount of adult attention did not vary across study phases, however adult attention became less dependent on problem behavior during the CICO and first fading phase. Clinical and conceptual implications, as well as future research will be discussed. / Adviser: Cynthia Anderson

An Evaluation of An Assessment of Check-In/Check-Out with Children who are Homeless in an After School Care ProgramCamacho, Ana Paula 29 June 2016 (has links)
Schoolwide Positive Behavior Interventions and Support (SWPBIS) is an approach designed to improve the correct implementation, consistent use, and maintenance of evidence-based practices related to behavior, classroom management and school discipline systems. Check-in/Check-out (CICO) is often recognized as a successful intervention in SWPBIS. However, most of the research on the use of CICO has focused on the school setting. This study provided an extension to the literature by examining the effects of the CICO program with homeless children attending an afterschool program. A non-concurrent multiple baseline across participants design was used to evaluate the CICO program effects. Students were exposed to a CICO intervention in which problem behaviors were targeted for reduction and task engagement was targeted for acquisition. Of the five participants selected for the study four participants were exposed to a CICO intervention. Results demonstrated a decrease in problem behaviors and an increase in task engagement for all four participants.

Designing a digital key for hotel applications / Designa en digital nyckel för hotellapplikationerDikken, Niels January 2020 (has links)
Although hotels have already started to implement online check-ins and digital keys in their applications, there has not been much research on the design of these prominent features. This thesis focuses on designing a digital key that is both easy to use and perceived as safe. A Research through Design approach was followed consisting of semi-structured interviews, an analysis of textual user reviews, and Lo-Fi and Hi-Fi prototyping in order to understand the needs and problems users face while receiving and using a digital key, as well as to provide further design directions for this feature. The findings showed that using a mobile phone to open a door or gate was already part of some of the participants’daily life. Still, many people do not like to rush into this digitalization. Hotel guests do not seem very worried about safety and using a digital key because the level of trust is high in the hospitality industry. The design presented in this paper serves as a starting point on how to design the receiving and using of a digital key. / Även om hotell redan har börjat implementera online check-in och digitala nycklar i sina applikationer, finns det idag inte mycket forskning kring design och utformning av dessa framträdande funktioner. Denna avhandling fokuserar på att designa en digital nyckel som både är enkel och smidig att använda, samtidigt som den av användaren skall uppfattas som säker. Ett forskning genom design tillvägagångssätt har använts, som består av semistrukturerade intervjuer, en analys av skriftliga användarrecensioner, samt Lo-Fi och Hi-Fi prototyper. Detta för att skapa förståelse kring de behov och problem som användarna upplever vid mottagande och användning av en digital nyckel, samt för att ge ytterligare vägledning kring design av denna funktion. Resultaten visade att användandet av en mobiltelefon för att öppna en dörr eller port redan var en del av vissa av deltagarnas dagliga liv. Samtidigt är det många som inte vill göra denna digitala transformation allt för snabbt. Hotellgäster verkar inte vara oroliga för säkerheten eller att använda en digital nyckel då man upplever ett starkt förtroende inom hotellindustrin. Den design som presenteras i denna avhandling utgör en startpunkt för hur mandesignar mottagandet och användandet av en digital nyckel.

An evaluation of a secondary intervention for students whose problem behaviors are escape maintainedBoyd, Roy Justin, 1982- 06 1900 (has links)
xiii, 99 p. : ill. (some col.) / Check-in-check-out (CICO) has been demonstrated to produce decreases in problematic behaviors and increases in academic engagement when used as a secondary intervention within a school-wide positive behavior support (SWPBS) framework. In general, research has suggested that CICO is most effective for children whose problem behaviors are sensitive to adult attention without modifications. However, research is lacking on secondary interventions intended for students whose problem behaviors are hypothesized to be maintained by escape or avoidance of academic tasks.
Drawing from research on the utility of function-based interventions and the teaching of functional replacement behaviors to decrease problem behaviors and increase appropriate skills, a secondary intervention, Breaks are Better (BrB), was designed that builds off core features of CICO but also includes function-based components for addressing problem behavior maintained by task avoidance. Modifications included 1) defining specific expectations that were incompatible with problematic behavior during academic routines and 2) providing students with functional replacement behaviors that allowed them to recruit both brief breaks and help.
Effectiveness of BrB was examined using an ABAB design across three participants whose off-task behaviors were hypothesized to be maintained, in part, by task avoidance or escape. The current study examined the following primary research questions: 1) is there a functional relation between the implementation of BrB and reduced rates of off-task behavior, and 2) is there a functional relation between the implementation of BrB and increases in the use of alternative replacement behaviors (help and break)?
A functional relation was documented between the implementation of the BrB intervention and reductions in off-task behavior for two out of three participants (Gregg and Alex). However, for Diego, off-task behavior was somewhat variable during the final intervention phase. Results from the collection of contextual fit and social validity data indicated that students, teachers, and parents viewed BrB as effective, worth the required effort, and contextually appropriate for use in this school. / Committee in charge: Cynthia M.

An Evaluation on the Effects of Check-In/Check-Out with School-aged Children Residing in a Mental Health Treatment FacilityStuart, Crystal Ann 01 January 2013 (has links)
School-Wide Positive Behavior Interventions and Support (SWPBIS) is an evidence- based application of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to address and prevent problem behaviors from occurring, promote pro-social behaviors, and create a positive learning environment for all students. There are many secondary interventions that have been utilized within the framework of SWPBIS that have high success rates. However, the research conducted on the use of Check-In/Check-Out (CICO), a secondary intervention, has focused its attention more on its effectiveness in public elementary schools. There is a lack of research evaluating the effectiveness of CICO in alternative school settings. This study provides an extension to the literature by examining the effects of the CICO program with school-aged children residing in a mental health treatment facility. Using a concurrent multiple baseline across participants design, students were exposed to a CICO intervention strategy in which problem behaviors were targeted for reduction and academic engagement was targeted for acquisition. All three students showed substantial decreases in problem behavior and increases in academic engagement when the CICO intervention was in place.

Altering a Secondary Tier Intervention to Examine the Effects of Negative Reinforcement Contingencies on Elementary School StudentsSwift, Stevie-Marie 01 January 2012 (has links)
Problem behaviors in the school setting have become more frequent as well as challenging for teachers and faculty to decrease while attempting to help their students attain their academic goals. Within the last decade, school-wide positive behavior support (SWPBS) has become more widespread as an evidence-based practice within the school system. SWPBS uses a multi-tiered support structure in order to affect behavior change across an entire school population. Several common secondary interventions have been utilized with high success rates. However, the research conducted thus far using the Check-In/Check-Out (CICO) program, a secondary intervention, has shown a lesser degree of success in behavior change with those students whose problem behavior is maintained by negative reinforcement or escape from aversive tasks. The current study examined the effects of the CICO program, adapted to address negative reinforcement contingencies. Using a multiple baseline across participants design, students in this study were exposed to a modified CICO intervention strategy in which problem behaviors, specifically related to the escape function as determined by a routine analysis, were targeted for reduction while academic engagement were targeted for acquisition. Results provided reductions in problem behaviors and an overall increase in academic engagement across participants with teacher implementers indicating the modified CICO program as feasible and acceptable. Implications for future research are discussed.
