RESUMO

This study aims to identify the criteria used by teachers in the public school system to characterize behavioral problems of students because along with the problems being constantly mentioned by many teachers, a number of stereotypes have been created to explain behavior that falls outside the expectations of public schools. These stereotypes are designated: hyperactivity, attention disorders and disruptive conduct. Thus, research was done with elementary school teachers in Sao Paulo to discover what teachers consider problematic behavior, and find out how they classify the root of the problem and the criteria they use to arrive at their conclusions. This survey adopts the basic principles from critical theory, specifically the writings of Adorno and Horkheimer to discover how industrial society affects the way teachers make judgement.
