address this issue in Principle 1, which asserts the importance of ensuring the safety and well-being of youth who are incarcerated. To address the research progress since publication of the Guiding Principles, ProQuest and Ebsco were systematically searched and a hand search was conducted. Ten intervention studies were identified that addressed youth behavior. The studies primarily employed a single subject research design and focused on increasing youth compliance and/or decreasing disruptive behaviors. Reviewed studies provide support for providing clear behavioral expectations and reminders, praise, and reinforcement, as well as cognitive-behavioral interventions. However, methodological limitations, including the lack of treatment integrity in nine of the studies, limit conclusions. Public Policy Relevance StatementThe Guiding Principles for Providing High-Quality Education in Juvenile Justice Secure Care Settings offered a framework for researchers to ensure intervention studies are conducted that focused on the behavioral interventions necessary to ensure a safe and healthy juvenile correctional environment. The current systematic review reveals important research is being conducted on increasing youth compliance and decreasing disruptive behaviors. However, researchers must be provided access to facilities and conduct highquality single subject and group design research in juvenile correctional facilities that also addresses such issues as youth lack of social skills, socially acceptable self-assertion, and ability to cooperate with peers. aaa This document is copyrighted by the American Psychological Association or one of its allied publishers.This article is intended solely for the personal use of the individual user and is not to be disseminated broadly.
