Article Summary on Behavioral Disorders
In the article, "The Impact of Targeted Classroom Interventions and Function-Based Behavior Interventions on Problem Behaviors of Students with Emotional/Behavioral Disorders," the authors focus upon assessment based interventions in special education. The authors want to study the changes functional behavior assessments have on the daily routines of and the problem behaviors in special education settings. The authors begin their article with a historical review of literature and research on what makes for an effective classroom. There is substantial evidence that shows a direct relationship between the students' social and academic behaviors and the classroom setting or ecology. The focus of this particular study is upon the physical and environmental factors in a classroom that contribution to the reduction of problem...
Students in special education have a greater likelihood of demonstrating inappropriate behaviors as well as a greater likelihood of lacking the ability to exercise appropriate self-control or self-correcting behaviors. Therefore, the study seeks to find ways to minimize environmental factors in a classroom setting that may trigger, enhance, or otherwise sustain problem behaviors for students with behavioral disorders.
The authors' intent is to clarify the impact of functional based assessment based interventions on the classroom. Specifically, they studied these interventions in relation to targeted classroom interventions as means to eliminate problem behaviors. The authors question how well and which targeted changes in the classroom environment supported appropriate behaviors. The authors further question whether these targeted changes assisted in the reduction of problem behaviors. They limited their research to one school in the…

To empathize will not even require a person to understand the reason why some people feel that way, or feel different. Empathizing, as a component of emotional intelligence, is just mere knowing and/or being aware of how they feel and nothing more (Anderson, 1985). The fifth and last component of emotional intelligence deals with handling relationships. This component is parallel to the management of various emotions to others, socialization, and
2008). Interestingly, this study also showed that the age and length of service for nurses was also related to their experience of work related stress independently of emotional intelligence, with younger and less experienced nurses reporting lower levels of stress than those with longer service records (Landa et al. 2008). While emotional intelligence is a major part of dealing with stress occurring in the workplace, then, it is not
Relationships provide the key experience that connects children's personal and social worlds. It is within the dynamic interplay between these two worlds that minds form and personalities grow, behavior evolves and social competence begins."
