BOLSONI-SILVA, Alessandra Turini  and  MARIANO, Marília. Behaviors of teachers and students: descriptions and comparisons. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.70, n.3, pp. 80-97. ISSN 1809-5267.

In face of the lack of studies that operationalize and compare the behaviors that subsidize the social interactions between teachers and students, the objective of this study was to describe and compare educational practices of teachers and children's behaviors. Variables related to schooling, sex and clinical indicators to behavior problems were controlled. The study involved 283 children that were evaluated by 142 teachers through an interview script and questionnaires. Social interactions in the school environment are mutually influenced and can either promote the acquisition of social abilities or potentialize behavior problems. This study tends to assist interventionist programs with teachers in favor of child development.
