Abstract
The perceptions of child care workers and residents regarding interaction patterns in point and level systems, a widely used behavior modification program in residential group care facilities, were explored. Participants were randomly selected from 360 agencies across the country. The participants completed a survey. Research indicates interpersonal interactions are fundamental in fostering positive development in children. This study measures the degree to which this is evident in the point and level system.
