A multicomponent behavioral intervention for an urban classroom

Sentelle, Julie A.

Abstract Details

2003, Doctor of Philosophy, Ohio State University, Educational Services and Research.
A multicomponent behavioral intervention aimed at reducing disruptive behavior and improving some of the potential communication problems that may arise in a diverse classroom was implemented in an urban elementary school. The participants were 6 4th and 5th grade African American “gifted” students who exhibited significant amounts of disruptive behavior in their self-contained classroom. Using an ABAB reversal design, data regarding students’ behavior was gathered by both direct observation and (BASC) ratings scales completed by the teacher. When an outlier in direct observation data was ignored PND’s revealed treatment effects for 2 students. Pre and post BASC scores showed no significant differences except for one student who also showed treatment effects. Need for further research is indicated.
