A Behavioral Approach to Identifying Sources of Happiness and Unhappiness among Individuals with Profound Multiple Disabilities.

Green, Carolyn W.; Reid, Dennis H.

Behavior Modification, v23 n2 p280-93 Apr 1999

Indices of happiness and unhappiness were defined, and a corresponding observation system was developed and implemented with five students in an adult education classroom. Results indicate the definitions and the observation system reliably identified frequencies of happiness and/or unhappiness indices for each student across separate activities. (Author/GCP)
