In Only 10 Minutes, Measure How Stress and Trauma Are Impacting Your Student's Academics, Behaviors, Emotions, and Physiologic Functioning

 

The first comprehensive instrument measuring how stress and trauma impact children in a school-based setting from the teacher’s perspective. The FACT Teacher Form allows school psychologists to formulate targeted interventions that better meet students' needs. Use to develop 504 recommendations, IEP accomodations, and to screen children within a multi-tiered system of support (MTSS) delivery model.

 

Features and benefits

  • Quantifies the impact of traumatic experiences on school-based functioning, rather than the source, in order to help you generate specific interventions.
  • Completed by a classroom teacher or other educator familiar with the student’s typical behavior and day-to-day functioning.
  • Evaluates both academic functioning and resiliency in the same measure.
  • Demonstrates strong evidence of reliability and validity.
  • Four clinical scales (Behavior, Emotional, Physiological, Academic), one index (Trauma Index), and a supplemental Resiliency scale paint a broad picture of students’ functioning. Two validity scales are also provided.
  • Critical items are included to help identify children who may need immediate follow-up or intervention.
  • Designed for use by educational diagnosticians, school counselors, school psychologists, school nurses, community mental health providers, school administrators, and pediatricians.
  • Administered exclusively through PARiConnect. 
  • An e-Manual provides detailed administration and scoring instructions, along with psychometric data and rationale for publishing.
  • This edition can be used immediately by teachers while development of the full instrument, which will include a Parent Form and Self-Report Form, is ongoing.
  • Developed by noted school psychologist and educational neuropsychologist Steven G. Feifer, DEd.
