Discipline: Can it be Improved with Relaxation Training?

Matthews, Doris B.

Elementary School Guidance and Counseling, v20 n3 p194-200 Feb 1986

Examined effects of relaxation training on preadolescent children (N=532) with behavior problems. Results indicated fewer discipline problems among students receiving relaxation training than those who did not. Fighting, cutting class, and discipline reports markedly decreased. Suggests that counselors can serve as schoolwise consultants for reducing negative behavior. (Author/ABL)
