All Master's Theses

It is the purpose of this paper to (1) review the investigations and articles by psychologists and educators respecting evidence and extent of maladjustment in teachers, and the consequent effect of such teacher personalities on children; and, premised on the assumption that many teacher maladjustments with their resultant inadequacies are a consequence of unhappy teaching experiences, (2) to investigate areas for conditioning teacher adjustment, with particular attention to reviewing orientation methods and procedures for new teachers and teachers new to the school system.
