School Safety and Violence Prevention
American Psychological Association (Verlag)
978-1-4338-2894-2 (ISBN)
This timely book presents a data‑driven approach to preventing and responding to school violence. As school violence receives increasing attention across the nation, the application of scientific knowledge is critical. For maximum effectiveness, transdisciplinary teams should use school data, logic models, and theories of change to design, implement, and evaluate interventions. Collaboration among key stakeholders is also necessary to address both structural and systemic barriers to success with violence prevention.
With concrete methods for promoting safety in primary and secondary educational settings, this book will engage and
enable school faculty, counselors, administrators, and other partners to better understand areas of common interest and learn how to work together more effectively.
