Graduated Sactions: A Model for Understanding, Predicting, and Intervening in Elementary School Conduct Problems.
|
The presentation is the application of the juvenile corrections concept of “Graduated Sanctions” to elementary school conduct problems found in school children (K-5). Data accumulated from a random sample of elementary schools in a Northwest Indiana school district are presented. The application of Graduated Sanctions concepts and school data reveal relationships between conduct problems and various risk and protective factors in the child, family and school environment. Recommendations for predicting and anticipating problem students (K-5) and individual and system level interventions to reduce the number and intensity of conduct problems are presented and discussed.
