Social, Academic, & Emotional Behavior Risk Screener (Kilgus, Chafouleas, Riley-Tillman, & von der Embse, 2013) SAEBRS: Universal screening for behavioral and emotional risk • For use in K 12 settings • 1 3 min to rate a single student • 19 items are divided between 3 scales: Measures across domains in academic and behavior Success Total behavior Social Behavior Academic Behavior Emotional Behavior • Social Behavior (6 items) • Academic Behavior (6 items) • Emotional Behavior (7 items) Adapted from: Riley Tillman, C.

Social, Academic, & Emotional Behavior Risk Screener (Kilgus, Chafouleas, Riley-Tillman, & von der Embse, 2013) Raters identify how frequently the student has displayed behaviors during the previous month using the following 4 point Likert type scale: 0 = Never, 1 = Sometimes, 2 = Often, 3 = Almost Always Negatively worded items are reversed scored. Social Behavior Arguing Cooperation with peers Temper outbursts Disruptive behavior Academic Behavior Interest in academic topics Preparedness for instruction Production of acceptable work Difficulty working independently Emotional Behavior Sadness Fearfulness Adaptable to change Positive attitude Polite and socially appropriate responses toward others Impulsiveness Distractedness Worry Academic engagement Difficulty rebounding from setbacks Withdrawal Adapted from: Riley Tillman, C.

Technical adequacies • Evidence to support the SAEBRS as a reliability and validity instrument. • Confirmatory factor analysis and item response theory analysis support the use of two risk categories (at risk; not at risk) and three subscales and a total score at the elementary and middle school; von de Embse, Pendergast, Kilgus, & Eklund, 2015) • Cronbach’s alpha coefficient: Social. 90, Academic. 92, Emotional. 86. Total scale. 94 (Kilgus, Sims, von der Embse, & Taylor, 2016) • Statistically significant correlations (p >. 01) with office discipline referrals, in school suspension, out of school suspension, reading and math screening measures for (except Emotional subscale and office discipline referrals and in school suspensions; Kilgus, Sims, von der Embse, & Taylor, 2016)

Evidence of diagnostic accuracy • Sensitivity – probability that risk is detected for those students who actually have need • Total scale falls within optimal/acceptable ranges ≥. 80 for elementary and middle school • Subscales: Social ≥. 80, Academic ≥. 80, Emotional =. 73 • Specificity – probability that no risk is detected for students who do not have increased risk • Total scale falls within optimal/acceptable ranges ≥. 80 for elementary and middle school • Subscales: Social ≥. 80, Academic ≥. 80, Emotional =. 73 High school data not yet available.

Social, Academic, & Emotional Behavior Risk Screener (Kilgus, Chafouleas, Riley-Tillman, & von der Embse, 2013) Interpretation • • Higher scores are indicative of more appropriate behavior and functioning Subscale and total scores can be dichotomized in terms of risk category as at-risk and not at-risk At-risk Not at-risk Social Behavior 0 12 13 18 Academic Behavior 0 9 10 18 Emotional Behavior 0 16* 17* 21 Total Behavior 0 36 37 57 (Kilgus, Chafouleas, & Riley-Tillman; 2013; Kilgus, Sims, von der Embse, & Riley-Tillman, 2015; Kilgus, Eklund, von der Embse, Taylor, & Sims, 2016) *2016 revised risk range.
