Pre-School Teachers' Perceived Control and Intention To Act Regarding Child Behaviour Problems.
Hammarberg, Annie; Hagekull, Berit
Early Child Development and Care, v160 p155-66 Feb 2000
Examined 188 preschool teachers' perceived control over child behavior. Found that high perceived control was related to teachers' high intentions for action in child behavior problems. Job satisfaction, center quality, social recognition, and satisfaction with education were related to perceived control. Perceived control mediated relationship between center quality and teacher readiness to respond to behavior problems. (Author/KB)
