These are students for whom behavioural consequences have not shifted the pattern. Their responses are often disproportionate and recurring across settings.
Behaviours observed include:
Frequent outbursts (e.g., raised voice, verbal aggression, or physical expressions of frustration) that are out of proportion to the trigger
Difficulty de-escalating once activated; takes extended time to return to baseline
Low frustration tolerance during tasks — walking out, refusing to continue, destroying work
Inability to identify or articulate what triggered the response when asked afterwards
Escalation in response to perceived unfairness, criticism, or redirection from staff
