title: Measurement of social learning and its relationship to cognitive, behavioral, demographic, and diagnostic variables.
abstract: A curriculum-based paper and pencil group-administered test was developed to assess the objectives of the Self Level of the Social Learning Curriculum. The major objective of the study was to determine the extent to which performance on this measure was related to cognitive skills and adaptive behavior. A total of 242 primary level EMR subjects were tested. The results indicated that a reliable assessment procedure which taps cognitive skills and behavioral dimentions is feasible. Both of these factors related to the major assumptions underlying the Social learning curriculum.
