Abstract

This article explores the link between emotional behavioral disorders (EBD) and reading performance, and describes four intervention practices that positively impact reading performance for students with EBD. Research shows that some conduct disorders, such as EBD, can be linked to poor reading performance, although the causal relationship has not been determined. More research is needed to determine effective positive interventions for students with EBD, but interviews with several experienced teachers yield specific intervention methods, including Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM), that can be used to help bolster the reading performance of students with EBD.
