Toward an Acceptable Definition of Emotional Disturbance: Waiting for the Change
Algozzine, Bob
Behavioral Disorders, v42 n3 p136-144 May 2017
This is a quiet rant. A request to revisit an article reprinted in this issue prompted it and I focus on context and purpose of the original article, lack of developments in the field since the article was published, and favored directions to take in the future related to the focus of the original work. [This classic article was indexed in ERIC in 1978 ("Behavioral Disorders," v4 n1 p48-52 Nov 1978--EJ196224.]
