[en] In 2017-2018, at least five pilot schools will start with PBS in French speaking Belgium.
The objective of the communication is twofold. First, we will discuss the issue of cultural adaptability of PBS based on our experience of partnership with in the Netherlands, which has an educational system structurally close to ours, and whose system faces quite similar socio-economical and cultural challenges.
Second, we will introduce our research design, questions and tools to assess school climate, behavior problems, absenteeism and achievement as pretest measures. First analysis of the psychometrical quality of our instruments will be presented.
The challenge to find appropriate control schools will also be discussed.
