Office discipline referrals are a common practice in public schools to address students' problem behaviors. The authors report two descriptive studies in a public elementary-middle school to illustrate frequency of office referrals as an evaluative data source. Study I was a behavioral assessment of office referrals to determine the types of discipline problems confronting school personnel and the distribution of referrals among teachers, students, and grade level. In Study II, a fifth-grade class that had the most office referrals in the school received whole-class and individual-student interventions that produced a decrease in the number of referrals. These findings support use of office referrals as a readily available index by which to identify school discipline problems, design interventions, and evaluate outcome.
校内纪律转介是公立学校处理学生问题行为的常见做法。作者报告了在一所公立中小学进行的两项描述性研究，以说明作为评估数据源的校内纪律转介频率。研究I是对校内纪律转介的行为评估，以确定学校工作人员面临的纪律问题类型以及教师、学生和年级之间转介的分布情况。在研究II中，该校校内纪律转介次数最多的一个五年级班级接受了全班和个别学生干预，结果转介次数减少。这些发现支持将校内纪律转介作为一个现成的指标，用于识别学校纪律问题、设计干预措施和评估结果。
