TY - JOUR PY - 2010// TI - Social Skills Training for Taiwanese Students at Risk for Emotional and Behavioral Disorders JO - Journal of emotional and behavioral disorders (Austin) A1 - Wu, C.-y. A1 - Lo, Y.-y. A1 - Hua Feng, A1 - Yafen Lo, SP - 162 EP - 177 VL - 18 IS - 3 N2 - Two third-grade Taiwanese students at risk for emotional and behavioral disorders participated in a pull-out, small-group social skills training program developed to promote their skill acquisition and maintenance. Using a multiple baseline across skills design, the authors demonstrated that both participants made marked performance improvement in all three targeted social skills of on-task, appropriate conflict resolution, and cooperation during the intervention condition. Maintenance and follow-up data showed that both participants sustained their use of taught social skills in the training setting and their third-grade classroom, respectively. Social validity measures, including peer sociometric ratings and consumer satisfaction questionnaires and interviews, supported the positive effects of the social skills training program for both participants. Implications for research and practice are discussed.
