Student Brinkmanship and Classroom Organizational Structure.

Licata, Joseph W.

Planning and Changing, v11 n4 p179-88 Win 1980

Describes a field study that found that student "brinkmanship" (assertive behavior attempting to challenge the school's authority system yet avoid negative sanctions) is related to organizational routinization and student-teacher rapport. When rapport is poor, high routinization and control is correlated with low brinkmanship. (Author/JM)
