Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine if there is a correlation between family dysfunction as perceived by fourth and fifth grade students and behavioral dysfunction in intermediate school students as perceived by fourth and fifth grade students and their teachers. Subjects consisted of regular education students in the fourth and fifth grades. Students referred for psycho-educational evaluation were excluded from this study. Variables investigated were family dysfunction, student behavior, and gender. The study considered the comparative frequency of behavioral dysfunction characteristics among this group and relationships between behavioral dysfunction characteristics. Analysis of data was comprised predominantly of correlation analyses via multiple regression. No significant correlations were found.
