The Impact of Social Skills Training on Self-Concept of Gifted High School Students.

Clark, Jennifer J.; Dixon, David N.

Journal of Secondary Gifted Education, v8 n4 p179-88 Sum 1997

The social self-concepts of four gifted high school students attending a rigorous residential program were examined before and after participation in a social skills workshop patterned after the Culcross and Jenkins-Friedman (1988) model. Contrary to expectation, the subjects did not demonstrate an increase in their social self-concepts. (Author/DB)
