Abstract: The research aimed to identify the effectiveness of a training program based on reducing unacceptable behaviors among pupils with learning difficulties in the elementary stage in the State of Kuwait. The research was based on the quasi-experimental approach. The research sample consisted of (34) teachers; While the research sample included students (n = 20), where the sample of the experimental group was represented (n 1 = 10). The control group sample (n 2 = 10). The research tools included the unacceptable behaviors measure (the researcher preparation), and a training program to reduce unacceptable behaviors for students with learning disabilities. The research results indicated that unacceptable behaviors were the most frequent of the study sample were (speaking without permission - speaking outside his turn - interrupting others' speech frequently - speaking during the teacher's explanation - pushing Colleagues). The study results clarified that there are statistically significant differences between the pre- and post-measurement in the level of unacceptable behaviors of the experimental group, in favor of the post-measurement in reducing the unacceptable behaviors. The results also found no statistically significant differences between the pre- and post-measurement in the level of unacceptable behaviors among the control group. The study found statistically significant differences between the mean of the experimental and control groups on the scale of unacceptable behaviors in the post-measurement in favor of the experimental group in the decrease in unacceptable behaviors. The results also showed no statistically significant differences between the post and tracer measures in the level of unacceptable behaviors of the experimental group. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
