Validity of Rating Scales in Assessing Aggressive Behavior in Classroom Settings.

Shapiro, Edward S.; And Others

Journal of School Psychology, v23 n1 p69-79 Spr 1985

Teachers of 35 boys in the Lehigh University-based laboratory school for emotionally and behaviorally disturbed children completed rating scales assessing aggressive behavior in students. Children completed similar self-report instruments. Frequency counts of aggressive outbursts and outburst durations were recorded. Results found significant correlations among teacher- and child-completed measures. (Author/NRB)
