Abstract

The authors compared data from a social-emotional-behavior screener (i.e., the Student Risk Screening Scale—Internalizing and Externalizing [SRSS-IE]) with data from a high school early warning system. Data from 2,256 suburban high school students were used. Research questions examined the degree to which student demographic variables and early warning indicators predicted SRSS-IE outcomes; conversely, SRSS-IE ratings were used to predict future early warning system outcomes. Additionally, the authors examined the concurrence of screening data and early warning data to better understand students’ behavioral challenges. Results indicated while there is some concurrence between behavior screening and early warning data, agreement was greater for externalizing than internalizing behavior challenges. School teams using both data sources can increase the possibility that interventions and supports are more likely to match individual student needs.

摘要

作者比较了来自社会情感行为筛查者（即学生风险筛查量表-内化和外化）的数据[SRSS-IE]）和来自高中早期预警系统的数据。使用了来自2256名郊区高中生的数据。研究问题检查了学生人口统计学变量和预警指标预测SRSS-IE结果的程度；相反，SRSS-IE评级用于预测未来预警系统的结果。此外，作者检查了筛选数据和预警数据的并发性，以更好地了解学生的行为挑战。结果表明，尽管行为筛查和预警数据之间存在一定的一致性，但对于内在化的认同要比对内化的行为挑战要大。使用这两个数据源的学校团队可以增加干预和支持更有可能满足每个学生需求的可能性。
