Social-skills training for unassertive children: a multiple-baseline analysis

Social-skills training for unassertive children: a multiple-baseline analysis

M R Bornstein et al. J Appl Behav Anal. 1977 Summer.

Abstract

The effects of social-skills training consisting of instructions, feedback, behavior rehearsal, and modelling were examined in a multiple-baseline analysis in four unassertive children. The treatment was effective in that the behaviors selected for modification changed markedly. The effects of treatment generalized from trained to untrained items (interpersonal situations requiring assertive responding) and gains were maintained at the two-and four-week followup probe sessions. In addition, overall assertiveness in all subjects increased from baseline assessment to the conclusion of treatment and into followup.
