| The Federal Definition | The federal rules and regulations governing the implementations of IDEA define the term emotionally disturbed as follows (page 178) |

| Instructional Considerations | before being identified for special education, many students with EBD have been in general education where they could observe and learn from appropriate peer models |
| Need for social skills | Most students with emotional or behavioral disorders need specific instruction in social skills |
| needs of juvenile delinquents | educational arrangements for juvenile delinquents are hard to describe in general terms because delinquency is a legal term, not an educational distinction, and because programs for extremely troubled youths vary so much among states and localities |
| Special Challenges for teachers | Teachers of students with EBD need to be able to tolerate a great deal of unpleasantness and rejection without becoming counter aggressive or withdrawn |
| Manifestation Determination | Special rules apply to managing some serious misbehavior of students who are identified as having disabilities |
| Manifestation Determination | based on the idea that it would be unfair to punish students for engaging in misbehavior |
| Functional Behavioral Assessment | If the students behavior is persistently a problem, but the meaning of functioning assessment isn't entirely clear in the context of the law |
| behavioral intervention plan | for students with disabilities that have major problems |
| positive behavioral interventions and support | An approach of support for students with disabilities |
| interim educational setting | in the discipline of a student with disabilities who cannot be managed satisfactorily in the general education setting |
