Social Skills and Classroom Behavior among Adolescents with Mild Mental Retardation.

Margalit, Malka

American Journal on Mental Retardation, v97 n6 p685-91 May 1993

Relations among self-reported social skills, teacher ratings of classroom behavior, and direct observations of social interactions among 87 adolescents with mild mental retardation were investigated. Results demonstrated that (1) four domains of social skills were related to students' task orientation; and (2) the three sources of information validated one another. (Author/JDD)
