Abstract

Concerned with understanding causes of classroom disruptions; researchers, questioned extent to which students could manage disruptive behaviors: 7 males, median age 15, participated in 12 weekly, 1-hour focus groups’ discussions specific to their disruptive behaviors. 1 male participated in 12 weekly 1-hour case study interviews specific to his disruptive behaviors. Emergent themes highlighted different versions of students acting disrespectfully or respectfully in classrooms, with respect being operationalized as absence of blaming, lying, minimizing, and making excuses during school-based engagements. Understanding these defensive communicative and behavior patterns could inform co-produced interventions going forward.
