WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Behavioral Norms and School Climate Questionnaire Test

security class climate

This questionnaire is designed to assess students’ perceptions of behavioral expectations and the broader school climate. The Behavioral Norms and School Climate Questionnaire provides a brief, structured snapshot of day-to-day norms, perceived safety, and the quality of interpersonal and adult–student interactions within a school setting.

Developed by R. D. Felner, D. L. Gottfredson, and C. M. Haynes, it consists of 22 items and typically requires about 5 minutes to complete. Responses may be used to support screening and program evaluation efforts, identify areas of concern (e.g., inconsistent norms or perceived lack of support), and inform school-wide prevention and climate improvement planning.

The Behavioral Norms and School Climate Questionnaire is intended for use alongside other sources of information (e.g., incident data, attendance, staff reports) to contextualize findings and guide follow-up assessment or intervention when indicated.
