Many of you have already taken it on Take what we know about individual
behavior, systems, and data Use it to address the challenge of
racial/ethnic disproportionality in school discipline (and society)
A Challenge…

Poverty plays a role, but racial disproportionality remains, even when controlling for povertyAmerican Psychological Association, 2008Skiba et al., 2005Wallace et al., 2008
Addressing Common Questions
“Isn't it all really about poverty?”
![Page 11: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
No evidence of different base rates of behavior for any subgroupsBradshaw et al., 2010Losen & Skiba, 2010Skiba et al., 2014
Addressing Common Questions
“Aren’t Black boys just more violent?”
![Page 12: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
No! Our research indicates that disproportionality comes from unconscious bias – that we’re not even aware of.Banaji & Greenwald, 2013Greenwald & Pettigrew, 2014van den Bergh et al., 2010
Addressing Common Questions
“Are you saying that all teachers are racist?”

“African Americans are 2.07 times more likely to be searched during a vehicular stop but are 26% less likely to have contraband found on them during a search.”
Dept. of Justice Report:Ferguson Police Department

1. Show data: either theirs or national Hit them over their heads with inequities Cognitive dissonance: pattern that is not in
line with our values as educators Common Outcomes:
Defensiveness Challenging validity of the data More blaming of students
Our options for starting this work

2. Tell people to be less biased Explain importance of equity Describe the laws on discrimination Tell people to cut it out
Common Outcomes: No change in levels of discrimination
Don’t care Don’t have specific guidance
(Girvan, 2014; Girvan et al., 2014; Lai et al., 2013; Pettigrew & Tropp, 2006)

3. Cultural sensitivity training Discuss value of diversity Introduce concept of White Privilege Brief introductions to various cultures
Common Outcomes: Defensiveness White people crying Shift in attitudes for some? No new strategies
Our options for building support
(Lai et al., 2013; Pettigrew & Tropp, 2006)

4. Act based on an understanding of behavioral principles
Use what we know works well to address this challenge
Common Outcomes: ???

An individual’s color should not fate him or her to negative outcomes
Discussing equity and race is uncomfortable
Creating discomfort without providing effective strategies for equity is not productive
In discussing equity and taking steps, we will make mistakes

Automatic Associations
Our brains are wired to look for patterns When we are forced to make quick
decisions, we use our automatic associations to respond
![Page 32: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Participants were shown a series of computer generated White and Black faces from scowling to smiling
Misperceptions of Aggression?(Hugenberg & Bodenhausen, 2003)
![Page 33: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Implicit bias was not related to perceptions of White faces
Those with higher implicit bias perceived Black faces as more angry
Misperceptions of Aggression?(Hugenberg & Bodenhausen, 2003)

Unconscious, automatic Based on stereotypes We all have it (even those affected by it) Generally not an indication of our beliefs
and values More likely to influence:
Snap decisionsDecisions that are ambiguous
What is implicit bias?
![Page 35: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Which decisions in schools are more likely to be snap judgments?
Question
Correcting a student’s behavior
Sending a student to the office
Picking which student to call on
Deciding whether to call a student’s parent
Suspending a student from school
Grading students’ work
Snap DecisionsSlow Decisions

“the challenge is not a small number of twisted white supremacists but something infinitely more subtle and complex: People who believe in equality but who act in ways that perpetuate bias and inequality.”
-Nicholas Kristof, The New York Times
Implicit Bias and Race

Police Officers use force when arresting African American children as opposed to White children (Goff et al., 2014)
Arbitrators decide labor grievances in favor of men over women (Girvan, Deason, & Borgida, 2014)
Pediatricians recommend less pain medication for African American children than White children with identical symptoms (Sabin & Greenwald, 2012)
Implicit Bias predicts the extent to which…

1. We must be aware of our biases
2. We must be concerned about the consequences of our biases
3. We must know when biased responses are most likely
4. We must have replacement behaviors to respond in ways consistent with our values
Conditions Necessary to Neutralize Implicit Bias
(Devine et al., 2012)
![Page 47: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

Levels of specificity:
1. All ODR/suspension decisions (general self-instruction routine)
2. Identify VDPs through national data
3. Use school or district data

May be desirable/adaptive outside of school May work/be reinforced in other settingsNot necessarily “wrong” – just not for school
Solutions1. Be explicit in teaching situational specificity
(“code-switching”)
2. Provide extensive practice Example: operation signs
Situations:Responses to subjective problem behaviors
![Page 58: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
As we become fatigued, our filters for appropriate behavior can be affected
Effects of hunger (Gailliot et al., 2009)

Examples…
Decision States: Resource Depletion (Girvan et al., 2014)

When you see problem behavior, stop and ask yourself:
1. Is this a VDP? Situation Decision state
2. If so, use an agreed-upon alternative response
Two-step Neutralizing Routine for Staff:
![Page 60: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Neutralizing Routines for Reducing Effects of Implicit Bias
Setting event Antecedent Behavior Consequence
Lack of positive interactions with student
Fatigue
Loud complaints about work (subjective behavior)
Send student to office (ODR)
Student leaves class (Escape social interaction)Alternative
Response“See me after class.”
Self-assessment“Is this a vulnerable
decision point?”
![Page 61: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
1. Brief
2. If-then statements
3. Clear steps
4. Interrupts the chain of events
5. Doable
What are the critical features of effective neutralizing routines?
![Page 62: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
If this is a VDP…, “See me after class/at the next break” am I acting in line with my values? take two deep breaths recognize my upset feelings and let them go picture this student as a future doctor/lawyer model taking think time delay decision until I can think clearly ask the student to reflect on their feelings/behavior know that’s Rock Head talking to me “I love you, but that behavior is not ok”
Neutralizing Routine Examples
![Page 63: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Can also be used as precorrection
1. Am I about to enter a VDP?
2. What are my values?
3. When I see problem behavior, I’ll use the alternative response
Two-step Neutralizing Routine for Staff:
![Page 64: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
When you have to handle problem behavior, stop and tell yourself:
1. Don’t just do something, stand there! Be sure you are ready to act in line with values Get information from student and staff Assess student-teacher relationship
2. Whenever possible, use an agreed-upon instructional response
Teaches missing skills Connects student to school and staff
Two-step Neutralizing Routine for Administrators:(Susan Barrett)
![Page 65: Making Positive Behavior Support More Durable and Effective for All Kent McIntosh University of Oregon 2015 International APBS Conference](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022102808/56649ddf5503460f94ad8ac5/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Professional Development
1. Use data to identify: The extent of the problem Vulnerable Decision Points (VDPs)
2. Teach and practice: Implicit bias Identifying VDPs Using neutralizing routines
3. Follow up: Precorrections Ongoing coaching Monitor progress with data
