CB>PS>    After completing my masters' this summer I can tell you for a

CB>PS>don't learn math computation as well as non - behavior problem
CB>PS>students*. And I can tell you by how much they don't learn as well as

CB>Interesting question for your next research project: which is cause and

CB>perform well in school, or are students with behavior problems poor
CB>students because they can't behave?
 
        I was wondering the same thing.  If we take the group of defined
behavior problem students, successfully remove the behavior which
characterized them, then re-evaluated them, what would we find out?  It
wouldn't surprise me if no gains were made.  What is it about their
brains that created it problem.  Is it a simptom, or a disease?
 
Keep your stick on the Ice,
