A Comparison of Academic Aptitudes,Certain Values,and Personal and Background Characteristics of Students in Off-Campus Centers and on Central Campus of the Same University

Abstract

Three groups of conduct problem Students in three suburban junior high schools participated in sixteen sessions of a structured teaching and counseling program. Each session was conducted as a seminar in which the counselor led Ss in a discussion of some aspect of frustration and aggression theory in an attempt to induce Ss to relate the theoretical concepts to their own behavior. No significant differences were found between experimental and control Ss on a behavior rating scale, although there was a Treatments x Groups interaction for grade point average (GPA).
