PAX GBG: A qualitative inquiry into population-level implementation

08/01/2025 | PAXIS Institute |

This study examines the experiences of participants who were part of a PAX Good Behavior Game implementation in Ireland. Teachers and principals detailed the
process of adopting and implementing the universal preventive intervention into their schools and classrooms. They provided thoughts on training, implementation,
and the impact of the intervention. Participants found the comprehensive training provided adequate instruction to begin implementation. They also found that support
helped improve teachers practice with the intervention. Finally, they recommended the intervention, which dramatically reduced negative behaviours and increased
positive behaviours, should be scaled up across the country based on the results of the pilot study.
