Research using new direct observation procedures to analyze classroom social behavior
of children with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) is reviewed. Research
indicates teachers seldom provide praise or other forms of potential social reinforcement
and that teachers may engage in behavior to escape or avoid social contact with
these children. (Author/CR)
