Abstract
The development of a measure of teacher reactions to a variety of pupil, parent, and class-management problems is described. Factor analyses identified four child factors, two parent factors, and three class-management factors. Less frequently occurring problem situations were found to pose more serious handling difficulties. Situations relating to parents were more difficult for teachers to handle than ones involving individual children or class management. Suburban teachers had more serious handling problems than urban teachers, and less experienced teachers had more serious problems than experienced ones.Keywords
