“…Additional support for the contribution of pacing and signals to management comes from Carnine and Fink (1978) and Carnine (1976). Other teacher controlled variables that are influential include goal specificity (Rosswork, 1977), incentives for appropriate behavior (Ayllon & Roberts, 1974;Rosenfeld, 1972;Thompson, Brasswell, Persons, Tucker, & Rollins, 1974), and coordinated use of rules, feedback, and consequences (Greenwood, Hops, Delquadri, & Guild, 1974).…”

Based on year-long process and product measures of management effectiveness, two groups of 13 teachers of junior high mathematics and English were identified as being more or less effective in their classroom management practices and outcomes. Observational data collected in these teachers' classrooms during the first 3 weeks of the year were then analyzed in order to study antecedent behaviors, characteristics, and classroom activities of the two groups of teachers. Numerous differences were found on such classroom processes as developing rules and procedures, monitoring student compliance, maintaining a task-oriented focus, communicating information, and organizing instruction. Data indicate that the beginning of the year is a crucial time for establishing effective classroom management and that teachers' planning and decision making need to be done before school starts. The importance of teacher training in this area is pointed out.
