In a multiple baseline design across behaviors with a control group component, insulin-dependent diabetic children were administered social skills training. Additionally, a metabolic measure of diabetic control was administered at baseline and follow-up assessments. When compared with control subjects, youngsters who received social skills training exhibited large improvements on a role-play test in their abilities to cope with stressful disease-related social situations. No changes were observed, however, on the metabolic measure of diabetic control. The implications of these findings are discussed.
