From Resistance to Renewal

 

Promoting a Youngster’s Readiness to

Change Behavior for the Better

 

 

How exactly is this task accomplished? Read on...

 

The Behavior Transformation Guide (BTG) contains 2 assessment instruments (The BARC and The Ready Report) , both described below. The results of the assessment lead practitioners to a extensive list of detailed suggestions for intervention (many are hyperlinked to web pages that describe how to use the practices)

 

Adults who are familiar with the youngster complete the Behavior Assessment of Readiness for Change (BARC) checklist that pinpoints the particular stage of readiness in which the youngster presently exists.  The BARC includes:

 

The youngster completes The Ready Report (TRR) by placing a mark on an 11-point scale, indicating his/her willingness to work with adults to modify his/her behavior.  Based on the position of the mark, certain follow-up questions are presented for discussion with a trusted adult.

 

 

Based upon the information and results obtained from administration of the BARC and TRR, adults consult a particular listing of intervention suggestions that is tailored to the identified stage of readiness to cooperate.  When implemented, these practices move the youngster to the next higher level of readiness to change for the better (identified by the re-administration of the BARC and TRR assessment instruments).  Once the student arrives at a higher level of readiness, a new listing of interventions is consulted and implemented in order to continue the youngster’s progression.

 

Intervention listings are available for all stages of readiness… pre-contemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, maintenance, & relapse.

Thanks! I was looking for something for older students, this is the ticket! Sheri W.O.

 

“The Ready Report”, helps identify if the behavior is in need of modification. This is a great way to hear the student’s perspective of their behavior. Sorinel

 

By using “Readiness to Change” with our students, we can bridge their learning and willingness to alter their behaviors to enhance their learning experience. Elizabeth

 

 I spent a lot of time looking at the Readiness to Change Behavior Transformation Guide (BTG) because I currently have a student in the (what I believe to be) contemplation stage. I’m struggling for ways to help him. The BARC is really easy to follow and I think it could yield some great noticings for IEP meetings or meetings with parents. I enjoy the fact that it is broken down into stages and each stage has its own assessment. It is nice to have one assessment that isn’t 20 pages long. It’s perfect that in addition to the 0-3 scale there is also a table for taking qualitative notes. I hate how I am always restricted to some kind of number scale when filling out assessments. What I am most interested to try out are some of the specific intervention strategies in each stage.  Kara
