ABSTRACT

Current prevalence estimates suggest that between 2 and 20% of the school age population are at risk for emotional and behavioral disorders(EBD), with less than 1% of students receiving special education services under the label of EBD(Lane et al., 2009). The purpose of this study was to review the research literature for children at-risk for EBD and to provide information and suggestions for future research and practices. A systematic search of the literature from 2000 to 2014 revealed 16 experimental studies published in major special education journals within the foreign countries(specially the United Sates) and South Korea. This study analyzed the 16 selected studies in terms of 9 analytical variables: participants, screening tools, research settings, experimental design, training program and strategies, target skills, method of measurement, reliability(treatment fidelity, inter-observer reliability, social validation), results(ie. effects, maintenance, generation). The findings of this study were described in detail based on the 9 analytic variables. Implications, limitations, and directions for future research are discussed.
