(3) The classroom must be quiet in order for students to learn. (4) I am concerned about both what my students learn and how they learn. (5) If a student turns in a late homework assignment, it is not my problem. (6) I don't want to reprimand a student because it might hurt his/her feelings.

(7) Class preparation isn't worth the effort. (8) I always try to explain the reasons behind my rules and decisions. (9) I will not accept excuses from a student who is tardy. (10) The emotional well-being of my students is more important than classroom control. (11) My students understand that they can interrupt my lecture if they have a relevant question. (12) If a student requests a hall pass, I always honor the request.

Add your responses to statements 1, 3, and 9 Statements 4, 8 and 11 Statements 6, 10, and 12 Statements 2, 5, and 7 The result is your classroom management profile. Your score for each management style can range from 3 to15. A high score indicates a strong preference for that particular style.

The classroom management styles are adaptations of the parenting styles discussed in Adolescence, by John T. Santrock.
