Promoting Social Interaction and Status of Children with Intellectual Disabilities in Zambia.
Ronning, John A.; Nabuzoka, Dabie
Journal of Special Education, v27 n3 p277-305 Fall 1993
Play-skills training, provided to eight Zambian elementary children with intellectual disabilities, resulted in more substantial increases in interaction between subjects and nondisabled children when coupled with teacher prompts, compared to training alone. Having a nondisabled child take the initiator role increased and maintained social behavior. (Author/JDD)
