Looking at Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports Through the Lens of Innovations Diffusion

Innovations diffusion research sheds light on the complexities associated with the process of persuading people to adopt new ideas. This study applied the principles of innovations diffusion to Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS), by examining the five characteristics known to influence whether an idea is adopted for widespread use. Twenty-two members of school PBIS teams were interviewed in a qualitative study. The results of this study indicate that the innovations diffusion characteristics of PBIS influence successful or unsuccessful adoption and implementation. Knowing these characteristics can provide guidance for successful adoption of PBIS.
