The only significant finding was the moderating effect of the student–teacher and teacher–student relationships. A significant interaction between the moderating effects showed that a positive student–teacher relationship showed overall reductions in total problem behavior across an academic year. This result is interpreted as students' perception of a positive relationship with their teacher as critical to the therapeutic mechanism of Tier 2 behavioral interventions.}, number={1}, journal={SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY REVIEW}, author={Stage, Scott A. and Galanti, Sally B.}, year={2017}, month={Mar}, pages={3–20} }
