The Effects of A Group Counseling Intervention On Students With Behavioral Adjustment Problems

Abstract

Cognitive-behavioral group counseling was studied with students that exhibited externalizing behavior. A total of 24 male students (12 control and 12 experimental) who exhibited externalizing behavior participated in this study. The intervention resulted in clear and salutary changes in the behavioral adjustment of students. The intervention demonstrates that school counselors can play a substantial role in remediating and preventing disruptive behavior in schools.
