Using the Revised Behavior Problem Checklist, the behavior of 95 middle school children was rated by two groups of teachers. Pearson correlation coefficients indicated a low degree of relationship between ratings by the two groups. Teacher ratings for each child were then recoded as 1 (normal). 2 (mildly deviant), or 3 (highly deviant). The number of cases in which both groups agreed in identifying deviant children was determined. Results indicate little agreement between the two groups of teachers in identifying children who were either mildly deviant or highly deviant. Several recommendations are offered concerning the use of behavior rating checklists in the diagnostic process.

Behavior of 120 secondary school students grades 9 through 12 was rated by two groups of teachers using the Revised Behavior Problem Checklist. Pearson correlation coefficients indicated a low degree of relationship between raw score ratings provided by the two groups. Ratings were then recoded and placed into one of three categories: normal (recoded rating = 1), mildly deviant (recoded rating = 2), or highly deviant (recoded rating = 3). The degree of agreement between the two rating groups in identifying mildly deviant and highly deviant students was determined. Results indicated little agreement between the two groups. The significance of these results and their relationship to results obtained by previous investigators is discussed. Conclusions and recommendations are also provided.

The interrelationships among the subscales of the Behavior Problem Checklist, the Conners' Teacher Questionnaire, and the Devereux Elementary School Behavior Scale were examined in a sample of 93 elementary and junior high students in special classes for the emotionally disturbed. Results suggested the presence of three independent dimensions of psychopathology (conduct disorder, anxiety-withdrawal, and immaturity) frequently found in previous research. The results also cast doubt on the syndrome of hyperkinesis as independent from conduct disorder.

Parent and teacher ratings of 141 middle school children were collected using the Revised Behavior Problem Checklist. Pearson correlation coefficients indicated a low degree of relationship between parent and teacher ratings. Ratings were then recorded as 1 (normal), 2 (mildly deviant), or 3 (highly deviant). There was a general lack of agreement between parents and teachers in identifying children who were either mildy deviant or highly deviant.

Adolescent boys and girls aged 14 to 18 years, identified as either behaviorally disordered or normal, were rated by their teachers on the Behavior Problem Checklist. Analysis of these ratings revealed significant differences for pupil category, Behavior Problem Checklist dimension, and category by dimension interaction, but no significan differences for sex alone or in interaction with other factors. Behaviorally disordered and normal pupils were best discriminated from one another on the basis of Conduct Disorder and Personality Problem. Implications for further research and special educational practices based on the present findings were discussed.
