Behavior Intervention Planning
Behavior Intervention Planning
Consultation is widely recognized as a major role of school social workers. Consultation is a method of intervention in which the school social worker provides information, education, and support to assist consultees to become interventionists and develop an action plan. Additionally, developing behavior intervention plans (BIPs) or behavior intervention planning (BIP) is recognized as an important aspect of consultation within school social work, school psychology, and clinical child psychology. Many school personnel mistakenly believe the purpose of a BIP is to change a child's behavior, and while this is the ultimate outcome of a BIP, the plan should focus on changing environmental contexts (i.e. physical environment, daily schedule, the timing of interactions with certain individuals) or the behaviors of adults or peers. This chapter aims to identify, appraise, adapt, and evaluate the evidence base when empirically supported strategies are implemented within the BIP process.
