European school staff needs and views related to SWPBS implementation

Currently, research and implementation efforts across Europe are tailored to promoting positive, safe and inclusive school environments for all students. An already established American schoolwide framework that has been shown to improve student social and academic behaviors, teacher job satisfaction and overall school climate is the School-Wide Positive Behavior Supports (SWPBS) (Horner et al., 2009). In light of international efforts to transfer and adopt the SWPBS framework from an American context to other country-specific ones, this study aims to explore European school staff views on behavior discipline based on the SWPBS approach. Using the "Staff Perceptions of Behavior and Discipline" (Feuerborn, Tyre, & King, 2015), we identified 440 school staff members from elementary schools across five countries (Croatia, Cyprus, Greece, Netherlands, Spain) to administer the survey. Results verified that SPBD is a promising tool to identify European school staff needs and views related to SWPBS implementation (Feurborn et al., 2015).
