Task 1: Case study
READ THE FOLLOWING CASE STUDY AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT
FOLLOW:
Eddie: An attention-getting child
A Grade 3 teacher seeks your professional help with an eight-year-old boy in her class.
She tells you that Eddie’s behaviour is highly disruptive because he is continually
acting out his problems in a hostile or aggressive manner. He punches other children
for no apparent reason, tears up others’ work, rarely follows instructions, continually
talks at times that are disruptive, and draws attention to himself through negative
behaviour. He seems to take delight in seeing other children get angry.
The teacher tells you that she is at a loss to know how to deal with Eddie’s behaviour.
She considered asking that he be removed from her classroom, but she hesitated
because she believes that he has many pressing conflicts and is a deeply troubled
child. She asks you to see him for a session and give her some guidance in dealing
with his behaviour.
You see Eddie for an individual session, during which you discover that his father is
both verbally and physically abusive. Without provocation his father calls him names
1
, and beats him up. One time, Eddie was beaten so badly that he had severe cuts and
bruises, and his father threatened him with a ‘real beating’ if he did not agree to say
that he had fallen over by accident. You also discover that Eddie comes from a single-
parent family. His father has looked after Eddie since his mother died when he was
five. Eddie tells you that he would feel really lost if he didn’t have his father. He thinks
that maybe he has done many wrong things to deserve the treatment he gets.
Working within a behavioural framework, show how you would proceed in this
session with Eddie so that you might be in a better position to make recommendations
to his teacher and might offer him some direct help yourself.
1. What goals would you have in mind during this session? How would you
attempt to meet them? What questions would you ask Eddie? How might you
approach the issue of his disruptive behaviour in class? What might you want
to tell him? What would you tell his teacher?
2. How do you expect that you would handle the issue of Eddie’s beatings by his
father? How would you deal with Eddie on this matter? Might you approach
his father? If so, what would you say, and what would you hope to
accomplish? Might you consult the authorities? What are your legal
obligations in this case?
3. During your session, what behaviours would you most want to observe? What
would you do with your observations as far as Eddie is concerned? How much
would you share with him of what you know from his teacher and of what you
actually observe?
4. If you were to continue working with Eddie as his counsellor, what specific
behavioural procedures might you employ, and toward what end? (20)
