Adaptation, Regulation, Emotions… Intervening Effectively with Students
Adjustment difficulties and behavioral disorders are common among children and adolescents. Nearly 22% of young people experience difficulties that interfere with their daily functioning (Bougeard, 2012; Merikangas et al., 2010). These behavioral problems may result from various biopsychosocial factors along a continuum ranging from simple behavioral issues to diagnoses such as conduct disorder and oppositional defiant disorder.
Neurodevelopmental disorders such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, and mental health disorders such as anxiety disorders can lead to disruptive behaviors. In addition, psychosocial factors such as inadequate or overly rigid supervision, attachment disorders, or low self-esteem may underlie behavioral disorders.
Children and adolescents exhibiting behavioral disorders may engage in behaviors such as lying, disobeying, bullying peers, challenging authority, or even displaying violent behavior. This can have consequences on the child’s individual, emotional, and social life (American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2013), as well as on the life of the entire family and classroom environment (Lemelin et al., 2009; Thorell, 2009).
