Abstract
- One disadvantage of a brief study is that there are always a few readers who assume that the author's interest is limited to the subject matter his paper represents. This is especially true when the topic is behavior modification. Consequently, a few people always assume that anyone who speaks in behalf of behavior modification naturally has excluded all other techniques for improving behavioral functioning. A discussion of behavior therapy seems to have the capacity to arouse deep emotional feelings. Subjective values and objective knowledge are never separated when one investigates a problem. However, in reviewing the points one can determine that subjectivity dominates their replies. The impressions of school social work are based on the literature, discussions with school social workers from all parts of the nation and personal experiences. The author feels that discussions with schools social workers reflect a more accurate picture than does the literature because they represent a broader and unedited appraisal of the situation. His statements based on these sources are appropriate.
