The behaviors addressed are organized into four categories, each focusing on an area of problematic behavior commonly reported among school-age students. Central to the book is a rating scale consisting of 40 items measuring four areas: Acting-out behaviors/serious misconduct; noncompliance in the classroom, poor peer relationships; and emotional adjustment problems. This is an ideal tool for counselors and IEP committees who are charged with developing behavioral intervention plans. [8.5” x 11”...149 pages]
