A Comparison of Peer Initiation Interventions in Promoting Multiple Peer Initiators.
Sasso, Gary M.; And Others
Education and Training in Mental Retardation, v22 n3 p150-55 Sep 1987
The effects of three interventions (peer initiation, reinforcement, and prompting) delivered by nonhandicapped students (4th graders) on the social initiation behavior of untrained peers toward a student with severe handicaps were examined. Results indicated the prompt procedure produced the highest levels of positive social initiation from untrained nonhandicapped participants. (Author/DB)
