Training Social Skills to Severely Mentally Retarded Multiply Handicapped Adolescents.
Matson, Johnny L.; And Others
Research in Developmental Disabilities, v9 n2 p195-208 1988
Three severely mentally retarded, multiply handicapped adolescents were treated in a classroom setting for social skill deficits. Treatment focused on increasing eye contact and strengthening on-task and in-seat behaviors. Results suggested that a combination of visual stimuli, operant, and social learning methods can be used to successfully remediate such deficits. (Author/VW)
