Abstract
(type = abstract)
The purpose of the current research was to explore any differences or correlations between self-reported teacher use of behavior management strategies and the use observed by an independent observer. The study examined seven teachers in a suburban central New Jersey town by observing three separate times and giving out a survey with similar questions to the structured observation. Behavior management strategies highlighted were individual positive reinforcement, group positive reinforcement, planned ignoring, redirection, time out, and punishment. In order to analyze the data, correlational analyses were run. First, individual teachers’ responses were correlated with independent observations, finding that about half of teachers’ self-reports highly correlated with independent observations. Second, teacher self-reports were correlated by behavior management strategy with independent observations yielding mixed results. The study was exploratory in nature and more research with larger and more varied populations is needed.
