Spring 2019 PBIS School Status Updates for Cohorts 13 and 14: Summary of Implementation Fidelity Assessments and Data Use
Petersen, Amanda J.
Wilder Research
Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based approach to addressing behavior issues in schools. A significant amount of research has been done to identify the critical features of PBIS. More generally, implementation science points to a specific sequence to ensure that PBIS is implemented with fidelity. This spring status report provides information on PBIS implementation fidelity for school teams who are currently in PBIS training sponsored by the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE). The Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI) measures implementation fidelity for each of the three tiers of PBIS. It is designed to be taken four times per year while a school team is in training. In Minnesota, schools complete a TFI at each PBIS training and an additional TFI assessment is completed at their school with an external evaluator. In order to be implementing PBIS with fidelity, a school needs to score 70 percent or better for each of the three tiers of PBIS. This report summarizes average TFI scores, the number of Self-Assessment Surveys (SAS) taken, and the types of data systems used by: (1) 53 school teams that are in their second year of training (Cohort 13); and (2) 47 school teams are in their first year of training (Cohort 14). Based on the review of the results, the report closes with issues for the Minnesota PBIS Statewide Leadership Team (SLT), including the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) and the Regional Implementation Partners (RIPs) to consider when planning future PBIS trainings and working with school teams.
