Positive behavior interventions and supports (PBIS) focus on teaching positive social behaviors that are implemented by all individuals who are involved in the student's life. PBIS does not focus on punishments or negative reinforcement, but instead emphasizes positive rewards for appropriate behavior. Token economies may be used as a part of PBIS, but they are not the sole focus.
