This study introduces a microcomputer-based videodisc prototype for assessing children's social skills. This innovative tool leverages interactive video technology to enhance evaluations for children with handicaps.

Area of Science:

  • Child Psychology
  • Educational Technology
  • Behavioral Assessment

Background:

  • Traditional methods for assessing children's social skills have limitations.
  • Interactive video technology offers new possibilities for assessment.
  • Children with handicaps present unique challenges in social skills evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the development of a microcomputer-based videodisc assessment prototype.
  • To measure children's social skills using innovative technology.
  • To detail the theoretical and empirical foundations for the assessment content.

Main Methods:

  • Application of Goldfried and D'Zurilla's "behavior-analytic" approach.
  • Development of interactive microcomputer-based video technology.
