O'Connor, Erin E.; McCormick, Meghan P.; Cappella, Elise; McClowry, Sandee G. – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2014

Young children who exhibit dysregulated or disruptive behavior in the classroom have fewer opportunities to learn and consequently achieve lower levels of academic skills (Arnold et al., 2006; Raver, Garner, & Smith-Donald, 2007). A growing body of literature has examined how children's…

Falcomata, Terry S.; Northup, John A.; Dutt, Anuradha; Stricker, Jason M.; Vinquist, Kelly M.; Engebretson, Brenda J. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2008

However, sleep problems increased with severity of autistic symptoms and…
