Abstract
The push for inclusive education has resulted in an increase in the occurrence of problem behavior (i.e., aggression, disruptive behavior, defiance, tantrums) across the globe and it has become one of the most pressing issues in school settings. Problem behavior interferes with the ability of teachers to provide instruction due to its incompatibility with academic oriented behavior. In addition, problem behavior interferes with instructional activities that may be going on in the classroom. For example, behaviors such as shouting, fighting, and running around in the classroom disrupt the learning environment. Students who display problem behavior are often rejected by peers which minimizes opportunities for peer interaction.
