Description

This monograph is intended to help special educators design social behavior curricula that teach alternative or replacement behaviors for negative behaviors to students with emotional/behavior disorders (E/BD). Each section contains a brief description of a behavior replacement technique, an explanation of why a particular technique works, conditions or circumstances influencing the effectiveness of the technique, and guidelines for implementing the technique. A chapter is given to each of the following sets of techniques: (1) social skills training; (2) cooperative learning; (3) anger management; and (4) self-control strategies. (Contains 51 references.)
