  • The teacher-student relationship as a developmental context for children with internalizing or externalizing behavior problems.

    Jean A Baker, Sycarah Grant et al.ARTICLESchool Psychology Quarterly2008

In this narrative re-view, we examine contemporary perspectives on positive adjustment in children and pro-pose a develo…
