An Intervention of Problem Behaviors among Elementary School Students Based on School-Wide Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports
In order to prevent and reduce the occurrence of problem behaviors among elementary school students more effectively,based on the current situation of moral and mental health education in elementary schools in China,a localized School-Wide Positive Behavioral Intervention and Support program was developed and implemented in an elementary school in Hunan for a period of six months.The results showed that compared with the pre-intervention period,students at the borderline and abnormal levels showed a significant decrease in the severity of problem behaviors,a significant increase in the level of pro-social behaviors,and an increase in the ratings of school climate and classroom climate.The findings are instructive for understanding the current situation,occurrence mechanisms,and coping strategies of problematic behaviors among elementary school students,and provide empirical evidence for the future large-scale implementation of this intervention model in China.
