“…Some previous interventions employed teachers and other adults to provide instruction and to prompt, praise, and reinforce social behaviors (e.g., Lindeman, Fox, & Redelheim, 1993 ;Storey, Smith & Strain, 1993 ). Other researchers have developed interventions that make extensive use of peers (Christopher, Hansen, & MacMillan, 1991 ). For example, Fantuzzo, Stovall, Schachtel, Goins, and Hall (1987) trained more sociable children to make competent social initiations to withdrawn peers as means of encouraging more positive social experiences.…”
