Content Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify significant social stimuli that were associated with prosocial and inappropriate behavior of children classified as severe behavior disorders (SBD). Two children from each of 19 classrooms- 10 from integrated and 9 from segregated special classrooms (for children with SBD)- were observed. One student in each classroom was defined as aggressive and one student was defined as nonaggressive. The selection yielded four groups: integrated nonaggressive without SBD (n = 10), integrated aggressive and SBD (n =10), segregated aggressive and SBD (n = 9), and segregated nonaggressive and SBD (n =9). An exhaustive behavioral coding system was used to record sequentially the social responses between target students and their teachers and peers. The data from each group were pooled for analysis. Lag sequential analysis was used to identify the significant antecedent and subsequent social responses of each code for each group. The results indicated that most of the teacher/child interactions were composed of teacher mands followed by student compliance, with teacher positive consequences for prosocial behavior rarely occurring. All significant antecedent and subsequent social stimuli of students’ aversive behaviors were identified. Results are discussed in relation to the reciprocal-coercive interaction hypothesis (Patterson & Reid, 1970), with implication for additional research (abstract from article).
