Early Intervention for Socially Withdrawn Children.

Mastropieri, Margo A.; Scruggs, Thomas E.

Journal of Special Education, v19 n4 p429-41 Win 1985-86

The synthesis of 18 single subject research studies on early intervention for socially withdrawn children indicated that reinforcement and measurement of targeted socially interactive behaviors showed the largest effects, with some treatment (such as unreinforced modeling of behavior) showing little effect. There was little evidence for skill generalization. (Author/DB)
