- Summary:
-
The study was designed to increase the range of conversational topics and the appropriateness of topics discussed by three students (9-14 years old) with severe or moderate handicaps. The participants were trained to initiate social conversations and expand upon the social conversations of others within a training context that closely simulated the natural settings of dining in an elementary school lunchroom or working at a cafeteria job. The training procedure consisted of prompts to initiate new topics of conversation, models of situationally appropriate topics and models of expansions. The correct initiation of novel conversations or appropriate and novel expansions was followed by an enthusiastic discussion of the topic by the trainer. Generalization probes were taken in the natural context with the use of microtape recorders to record the conversational behaviors of handicapped students with their nonhandicapped peers. The results indicated that the students increased their ability to initiate novel and appropriate conversations in the training and generalization settings. (Author/CL)
