Understanding and Improving Classroom Emotional Climate and Behavior Management in the “Real World”: The Role of Head Start Teachers' Psychosocial Stressors (2010, result): “These descriptive findings are congruent with results from teachers’ reports that suggest that teachers prefer concrete, practical approaches focused on behavior (Embry, 2004; Ialongo et al., 1999).”
Core Implementation Components (2009, methodology): “…more or less attention to any given core implementation component in order for the practice or program to be implemented successfully, and some practices may be designed specifically to eliminate the need for one or more of the core implementation components (e.g., Baker et al., 2000; Embry, 2004).”
Preventing Mental, Emotional, and Behavioral Disorders Among Young People: Progress and Possibilities (2009, background): “In an effort to provide this intervention at reduced cost, others have attempted to implement the Good Behavior Game intervention using much less training and system-level support (Embry, 2004).”
Early Childhood Teachers’ Use of Effective Instructional Practices and the Collateral Effects on Young Children’s Behavior (2014, background): “As described by Embry (2004), many programs identified as evidence-based “best practices” in prevention are comprised of behavioral kernels (e.g., reinforcement procedures), and he notes that evidence-based kernels can be combined to produce positive results (referred to by Embry as “behavioral…”
Report of the ACBS Task Force on the strategies and tactics of contextual behavioral science research (2021, background): “A strong program of research is needed to identify and conceptualize intervention “kernels” – fundamental units of behavioral influence or treatment elements that are not usefully divisible, and when eliminated, render the intervention ineffective (Embry, 2004; Embry & Biglan, 2008).”
Development, evaluation, and multinational dissemination of the triple P-Positive Parenting Program. (2012, background): “…for evidence-based practices, and prevention scientists that safe, nurturing, and positive parent-child interactions lay the foundations for healthy child development (Collins et al. 2000, Coren et al. 2002, Dretzke et al. 2009, Embry 2004, Gutman & Feinstein 2010, Kirp 2011, Stack et al. 2010).”
Handbook of school violence and school safety: From research to practice. (2006, background): “• “Try before you buy.” School-wide PBS is comprised of many smaller techniques (reward systems, teaching rules; Embry, 2004 ) that can be promoted as trial products.”
