Using a self-administered questionnaire, the attitudes of 844 Maltese primary school teachers towards 16 selected undesirable behaviours were surveyed. Results indicated that pupils' age is a significant moderator of half of the behaviours; these are perceived to be significantly more serious by teachers in the second three years of the primary school than by their colleagues in the first three years. Significant boy-girl differences in the seriousness of behaviour were revealed in most of the behaviours as rated by teachers in both the first and in the second years. In addition, length of teaching experience was found to be a significant moderator of the perceived seriousness of some of the behaviours: the less experienced, when compared with the more experienced, judged these behaviours as being more serious. Ability stream did not have any significant effects on the teachers' attitudes towards the undesirable behaviours.
通过一份自行填写的调查问卷，对844名马耳他小学教师对16种选定的不良行为的态度进行了调查。结果表明，学生的年龄是其中一半行为的显著调节因素；小学后三年的教师认为这些行为比前三年的同事认为的要严重得多。在第一年和第二年教师对大多数行为的评分中，行为严重程度存在显著的性别差异。此外，教学经验的长短被发现是一些行为感知严重程度的显著调节因素：与经验更丰富的教师相比，经验较少的教师认为这些行为更严重。能力分组对教师对不良行为的态度没有任何显著影响。
