Effects of Peer-Monitored Social Skills Training on Measures of Social Acceptance

Shaffer, Elizabeth Ann

Abstract Details

2009, Specialist in Education, Miami University, School Psychology.
The purpose of this study was to measure the effect that intensive social-skills training, peer monitoring and role modeling has on elementary students’ prosocial behavior. Twelve students in grades 3 – 5 served as participants in this intervention. Participants first received social-skills instruction, peer modeled during classroom skits, and peer monitored at recess while dispersing coupons to children demonstrating positive social-skills. Increases in positive social behavior in the classroom were found across all grade level participants.
