Challita, Julianne; Chapparo, Christine; Hinitt, Joanne
Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, v12 n3 p298-310 2019
The purpose of this study was to explore social skills of young children with reduced social competence, from the perspective of parents and teachers. The study adopted a descriptive, quantitative design using secondary data from occupational therapy assessment information on 241 children. The data were collected using a parent and teacher questionnaire based on the Perceive, Recall, Plan and Perform (PRPP) System of Task Analysis. Factor analysis techniques were used to explore conceptual groupings amongst 24 social skill items. Social skills of children with reduced social competence were categorized into four behavioral constructs: "emotion and resilience, "pro-social behavior," "intrapersonal capacities" and "friendship-making skills."
