Selection Measures

One popular procedure in the medical student selection process are multiple mini-interviews (MMIs), which are designed to assess social skills (e.g., empathy) by means of brief interview and role-play stations. However, it remains unclear whether MMIs reliably measure desired social skills or rather general performance differences that do not depend on specific social skills. Here, we provide a detailed investigation into the construct validity of MMIs, including the identification and quantification of performance facets (social skill-specific performance, station-specific performance, general performance) and their relations with other selection measures. We used data from three MMI samples (N = 376 applicants, 144 raters) that included six interview and role-play stations and multiple assessed social skills. Bayesian generalizability analyses show that, the largest amount of reliable MMI variance was accounted for by station-specific and general performance differences between applicants. Furthermore, there were low or no correlations with other selection measures. Our findings suggest that MMI ratings are less social skill-specific than originally conceptualized and are due more to general performance differences (across and within-stations). Future research should focus on the development of skill-specific MMI stations and on behavioral analyses on the extents to which performance differences are based on desirable skills versus undesired aspects.

Incomplete Picture

Social skills role-play assessment has been plagued by a lack of external validity. One solution recommended has been to select role-plays that are personally relevant for clients. The present study assessed the relationship between the personal relevance of role-plays and degree of socially skilled behavior. Results failed to support the hypothesis that clients would perform most poorly in those role-plays they viewed as most personally relevant. Results suggest that it may not be critical for therapists to develop role-plays that are personally relevant; the variables controlling socially skilled behavior do not seem unique to personally relevant situations. Instead, it may be more important for therapists to examine a broad range of social situations. If only personally relevant social skill situations are assessed, an incomplete picture of a client's range of social deficits may be obtained.

And Training

This study utilized two measures of job-related social behavior for adolescents and young adults—the Scale of Job-related Social Skill Knowledge (SSSK) and the Scale of Job-related Social Skill Performance (SSSP)—that had been developed in an earlier study. In the previous research, conceptually derived subsections of the two measures yielded high intercorrelations, suggesting the need to conduct further analyses to refine and possibly shorten both instruments. Both measures underwent item reduction analyses. After deleting 16 items a shortened SSSK contained 40 items. Factor analysis of the SSSP yielded six factors with a total of 94 items. Reliability analyses of the shortened SSSK and the six SSSP factors yielded acceptable results, and both measures powerfully discriminated among logically distinct subgroups. Logistic regression analyses identified those variables that discriminated most powerfully between persons with emotional and behavioral disorders and/or persons who had been arrested and persons without these characteristics. Results had implications for job-related social skills assessment and training and future research on the measures.

Two Measures

Two measures of community-based social behavior for adolescents and young adults with emotional and behavioral disorders (E/BD), the male and female forms of the Test of Community-Based Social Skill Knowledge (TCSK) and the Scale of Community-Based Social Skill Performance (CBSP), were examined. In previous research, conceptually derived subsections of the two measures yielded high intercorrelations, suggesting the need to conduct further analyses to refine and shorten both instruments to make them more applicable for use in school and service programs. The male and female forms of the TCSK were each treated as one factor. Item-total correlations were computed, identifying 17 items in the female form and 15 items in the male form to be deleted. Factor analysis of the CBSP yielded a logical and psychometrically adequate factor structure, with a total of 78 items across four factors. The shortened TCSK forms and the four CBSP factors (a) yielded acceptable reliabilities, (b) discriminated among subgroups of participants, and (c) exhibited convergent and divergent correlations in hypothesized directions. These results are discussed in terms of their implications for social skills instruction and future research on the measures.

Researchers posit that physical activity (PA) settings may provide an increased opportunity for social interaction. However, little consensus exists regarding the construct of social skills. Moreover, little is known about what type or amount of PA is necessary for individuals on the autism spectrum to benefit from this increased interaction. Thus, this scoping review synthesized the components (e.g., design, participants, independent and dependent variables, etc.) and findings of PA-based interventions that included social skill components to identify how interventions have incorporated these skills in different settings. Based on a review of 25 articles, this review revealed a great deal of variability in the types of PA, social skills, and instruments studied, as well as the intensity of intervention delivery in the published findings. No longitudinal studies were identified as a part of the search. These results provide a foundation for the design of effective PA-based interventions that may have an increased impact on the social skills of individuals on the autism spectrum. Future research should employ longitudinal designs to capture the relationship between social skills and PA, as well as to increase the likelihood of capturing change.
