These are behaviors that are resistant to guidance techniques including physical aggression, running away, and/or self-injurious behavior.

The Teaching Pyramid Observation Tool™ (TPOT™), Research Edition is used to assess the implementation of the Pyramid Model in classrooms for children who are 2-5 years old.

The Teaching Pyramid Infant-Toddler Observation Scale (TPITOS) is a tool similar to the TPOT and measures implementation of the Pyramid Model practices in infant/toddler classrooms. It focuses on the observation of adult behaviors and environmental arrangements specific to supporting the social-emotional development of infants and toddlers.
