Preschool Teachers' Use of Time-Out: Is What They Say What They Do?

Essa, Eva L.

Early Child Development and Care, v165 p85-94 Dec 2000

Used focus group discussion and classroom observations to compare whether early childhood teachers' reported use of timeout as a discipline method was congruent with classroom behavior. Found that the verbal responses of the five teachers observed were very congruent with what they carried out while teaching. (Author/KB)
