Goal Structure Effects on Social Interaction: Nondisabled and Disabled Elementary Students.

Eichinger, Joanne

Exceptional Children, v56 n5 p408-16 Feb 1990

The study compared social interaction behavior between eight nondisabled and eight disabled elementary students in either an individualistic goal-structured condition or a cooperative condition. For disabled students, the cooperative condition was associated with more social interaction during activity sessions, but not during free play sessions. (Author/DB)
