The first edition of the International Journal of Positive Behavioural Support was published in September 2011.
Positive behavioural support (PBS) combines the conceptual framework of applied behaviour analysis with the values base of social role valorisation and framework of person-centred approaches. The International Journal of Positive Behavioural Support is a peer-reviewed publication that aims to:
-
define and promote good practice in relation to the use of PBS
-
add to the evidence base regarding such interventions
-
demonstrate how PBS interventions can support people to change their challenging behaviours, improve their quality of life, and result in reductions in the use of restrictive procedures (such as physical intervention, seclusion and as required medication)
-
bridge the gap between academic research and service practice
Published twice a year.
