Abstract

Learn Disability Social Skill Apply Behavior Analysis Social Skill Training Social Intervention
Many students with learning disabilities encounter social difficulties in that they are less accepted and/or more rejected than their nondisabled peers (Bryan, 1974, 1986; La Greca & Stone, 1990; Stone & La Greca, 1990; see for review Vaughn & La Greca, 1988). Concern about these youngsters’ peer relations and social skills has led to an interest in intervention strategies for remediating the social difficulties many learning-disabled (LD) students display.
