Culminating Projects in Special Education
Children in the United States have not made adequate gains on national assessments in mathematics (Strickland & Maccini, 2012).

The perception of effort that EBD students require and their potential achievement, downplays the true potential of the individual. The main focus of this paper was to examine the disparities in behavioral expectations for students with emotional behavioral disorders in comparison to their classmates.

Relations Among Nocturnal Enuresis And Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Gretchen A. Singh
Culminating Projects in Special Education
Myriad studies have addressed the relation between nocturnal enuresis and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The association has been documented in both sexes. This review examines the constructs of childhood ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) and nocturnal enuresis, viz., bed-wetting. Three foci guide the analysis. First, biological and psychological models of nocturnal enuresis are compared and contrasted. Second, issues arising from construct definition are addressed. Third, the methods, technologies, and operating tenets used in the studies are examined. The review is purposefully delimited to studies and research published during the 20th and 21st centuries.
