Description
Students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) present challenging behaviors that often lead to school removals. This can lead to placements in alternative schools with other children presenting with similar behaviors. Reciprocal peer monitoring provides a class-wide intervention where students cooperate to earn points for appropriate behaviors are given peer-to-peer feedback. Results demonstrated increased appropriate classroom behaviors and decreased disruptions.
