The Influence of Children's Temperament Characteristics on Teachers' Decision Strategies.
Pullis, Michael; Cadwell, Joel
American Educational Research Journal, v19 n2 p165-81 Sum 1982
Thirteen primary teachers provided information on 321 students concerning the students' temperament characteristics, school performance estimates, and classroom management decisions. Factor analysis of the temperament measures yielded three independent factors: Task Orientation, Adaptability, and Reactivity. A strong and consistent relationship was found between the students' temperament characteristics and teachers' classroom decisions. (Author/LC)
