Positive Behavior Skills Training (PBST) is an evidence-based approach used in various fields, including education, parenting, therapy, and workplace settings. It aims to teach individuals new behaviors and skills through positive reinforcement and systematic instruction.

Positive Behavior Skills Training is often used to teach social skills, communication skills, problem-solving techniques, self-regulation strategies, and other important behaviors. It is particularly effective for individuals with developmental disabilities, behavioral challenges, or those who require additional support in learning new skills.

The approach is based on the principles of applied behavior analysis (ABA) and emphasizes positive reinforcement to shape behavior. By focusing on positive and constructive approaches, PBST promotes a supportive and encouraging learning environment that enhances skill acquisition and reduces unwanted behaviors.
