BIOLOGICAL FACTORS

There is a relationship between body and behavior and it

would therefore seem reasonable to look for a biological

causal factor of some kind of emotional or behavior disorder

(Cooper, 2005; Forness & Kavale, 2001)

Influenced by genetic, neurological or biochemical factors or

combinations of these

Researcher found evidence of the important role that heredity plays in

shaping behavior and personality, specifically the sex-linked differences in

many behavioral conditions.


5/12

Medications are helpful in addressing the problems of many

students with emotional and behavioral disorders if they receive

state-of-the-art psychopharmacology

(Konopasek & Forness, 2004)

Prenatal exposure to alcohol can contribute to many types of disability

and it is including emotional and behavior disorder. But only rarely is it

possible to demonstrate a relationship between a specific biological factorsand those disorder.

No real evidence that biological factors are the only causes for behavioral

problems. However, for severe and profound disorders, there is evidence to

suggest that biological contribute to their conditions.

Other factors:

disease malnutrition brain trauma


6/12

The fact that disorders have

biological causes does not

mean that they are not

emotional and behavioral

disorders because they can

have a physical cause such as

biological malfunction

Medical or biological approaches

are sometimes of little or no

benefit and the primary

interventions are psychological or

behavioral, eventhough the

disorder is known to have primarily

a biological cause. Medication do

not work well and generally no

effective medication are known

The causes of emotional and behavioraldisorders are seldom exclusively

biological or psychological. Once a

biological disorder occurs, it nearly

always creates psychosocial problems

that contribute to emotional and

behavioral disorder

Biological or medical treatmentof the disorder is seldom

sufficient to resolve the

problem. Medication may be

great benefit but it is seldom

the only intervention that is

needed

4 MAJOR POINTS (KAUFFMAN, 2005)


7/12

FAMILY FACTOR

Theory of socialization suggesting that the role of parents is

minimal in the development of their childrens personality or social

behavior

(Harris, 1995)

Family is the primary factor in socialization which including parents that have a

significant causal influence on some disorders.

Very good parents sometimes have children with very serious emotional and

behavioral disorder but in contrast, some neglectful or abusive parents might have

children with not significant emotional or behavioral disorders.

Parents who are generally lax in disciplining the children but inconsistent in dealing

with misbehavior tend to have aggression and problematic childrens


8/12

The Federation of Family for Childrens Mental Health wasorganized to help parents who have children with emotional and

behavioral disorder. This federation provide support, resource and

also organizing to assist each other in finding resources.

(Jordan; Goldberg & Goldberg, 1991)


9/12

SCHOOL FACTORChildren who exhibit disorders when they enter school may

become better or worse according to how they are managed inthe classroom

(Furlong, Morrison & Fisher. 2005; Walker et al, 2004)

Teachers and peers might be the models of misconduct becausethe child misbehave by imitating them

( Farmer et al., 2001; Kauffman, 2005a; Kauffman, Mostert, Trent, & Pullen,

2006)

Teacher who is unskilled in managing classroom or insensitive to students

individual differences creates an environment where aggression, frustration

or withrawal is common responses to the environment and teacher.


10/12

CULTURAL FACTOR

Dramatic increases in the ethnic diversity of most communities

might contribute to the mistaken identification of behavior

(Osher, Cartledge, Oswald, Sutherland, Artiles, & Coutinho, 2004)

Level of media especially through television and motion picture

The availability of recreational drugs and the level of drug abuse

The threat of nuclear accident or war
