Differential Effects of Seating Arrangements on Disruptive Behavior of Fifth Grade Students During Independent Seatwork

Year: 2012

Type: article

Abstract: We investigated teacher versus student seat selection in the context of group and individual seating arrangements. Disruptive behavior during group seating occurred at twice the rate when students chose their seats than when the teacher chose. During individual seating, disruptive behavior occurred more than three times as often when the students chose their seats. The results are discussed in relation to choice and the matching law.
