Description

For sample children aged 4 to 17 who had at least minor difficulties with emotions, concentration, behavior or being able to get along with others in the past 6 months (EMODIFF), and participated in a school program for these difficulties (DIFTSCHPROG), DIFTSCHTEACH indicates another school teacher provided the treatment or counseling.

Other personnel mentioned as providing treatment or counseling through a school program serve as reference points by which to interpret another school teacher. These personnel include:

• Special education teacher
• (DIFTSCHSPED)

• School counselor, psychologist, nurse, or social worker (DIFTSCHCOUN)

• School speech, occupational, or physical therapist (DIFTSCHTHER)

• Other school official
• (DIFTSCHOTH)

Comparability

Beginning in 2011, special education teacher was no longer offered as a response category for school personnel providing treatment or counseling. Otherwise, there are no comparability issues.
