Fundamentals of Interpersonal Behavior: A Social-Psychological Perspective

  • Chapter
Research and Practice in Social Skills Training

Abstract

The pace of development of social skills training over the past few years has hardly allowed for the orderly assimilation of scientific knowledge from social psychology and other disciplines. Research in these disciplines remains a relatively untapped source (Kopel & Arkowitz, 1975) and it is the purpose of the present chapter to attempt a review and integration of some aspects of the literature which have actual or potential application in social skills training. Subsequent chapters show how some of these topics can be developed in practice.
