Generalization and Maintenance of Social Skills of Children with Visual Impairments: Self-evaluation and the Role of Feedback

In: Journal of visual impairment & blindness: JVIB, Band 98, Heft 8, S. 470-483

Abstract

A multiple baseline design across behaviors was used with two visually impaired girls to establish the effectiveness of self-evaluation and the role of feedback. In both cases, self-evaluation was effective in increasing the girls' social skills and social interaction. Implications of the role of significant others in providing feedback are discussed.
