  • Title: School Refusal Behavior.
    Author: Lingenfelter N, Hartung S.
    Journal: NASN Sch Nurse; 2015 Sep; 30(5):269-73. PubMed ID: 25816422.
    Abstract:
    School refusal behaviors go beyond a child's dislike or disinterest in school. This article investigates the underlying anxiety, depression, and social phobias that often accompany these behaviors and the importance of early recognition and treatment. Successful treatment and resolution of school refusal behaviors need to be a multidisciplinary approach. Teachers, administrators, guidance counselors, school nurses, and parents need to be involved in the diagnostic, treatment, and readmission processes. School nurses are in a unique position to be able to help identify and provide support for students exhibiting school refusal behaviors.
