One of the myths surrounding students with emotional or behavioral disorders is that they are usually very bright. In fact, most children with emotional or behavioral disorders score in the dull-normal range of IQ tests and achieve below their age level on standardized tests. a.) Discuss how emotional or behavioral disorders may affect learning, others’ expectations, and testing results. b.) Discuss the broad patterns of behavior distinguished by externalizing and internalizing. Identify specific behaviors or disorders that fall within these dimensions and characteristics that are associated with them. Point out that problems associated with learning and sociability are common to both dimensions. c.) Why are some people extremely reluctant to consider aggressive, acting-out behavior a disability—unless such behavior is known to be caused by a physiological disease or dysfunction? d.) Why has depression only recently been recognized as a common and serious problem of children and adolescents?
