Purpose

Through its research program on Social and Behavioral Context for Academic Learning (Social/Behavioral), the Institute supports research on interventions designed to improve social skills, dispositions, and behaviors that support academic and other important school-related outcomes (e.g., attendance, high school graduation rates) in typically developing students from kindergarten through high school. The long-term outcome of this program will be an array of tools and strategies (e.g., assessment tools and behavioral interventions) that have been documented to be effective for improving or assessing social skills, dispositions, and behaviors that support academic and other important school-related outcomes of students from kindergarten through high school.
