Teacher Accuracy in Decoding Nonverbal Indicants of Comprehension and Noncomprehension in Anglo- and Mexican-American Children.
Machida, Sandra
Journal of Educational Psychology, v78 n6 p454-64 Dec 1986
The degree to which Anglo- and Mexican-American first-grade teachers can accurately decode nonverbal indicants of comprehension and noncomprehension was examined. Teachers perceived boys as understanding more than girls. Slight cultural differences were found in children's behavior, but it did not affect teachers' interpretation. (JAZ)
