Natural Rates of Teacher Approval and Disapproval and Their Relation to Student Behavior in Intermediate, School Classrooms.

Nafpaktitis, Mary; And Others

Journal of Educational Psychology, v77 n3 p362-67 Jun 1985

The natural rates of teacher approval of appropriate student behavior and off-task student behavior were determined in middle school classrooms. Mean rates of teacher approval were found to exceed rates of disapproval. Inappropriate approval also appeared to be a relevant factor in managing classroom behavior. (Author/ DWH)
