Abstract
This thesis aims to study the social skills and cognitive functions of junior high school students with learning disabilities (LD). 317 research samples are taken from junior high school students with LD in Taichung City,
Taichung County, Changhua County, and Nanto County. To collect the data, we adopt “Questionnaire Survey” and use “The social skill behaviors and characteristics scale for elementary and junior school (SSBCS) ” and
“WISC-Ⅲ” as interview tools. The research results are as follows:
1. 37.5 percent of junior high school students with LD are bad at social skills, whereas 4.7 percent of junior high school students with LD are good at social skills. Besides, junior high school students with LD show significant
differences in each aspect of social skills.
2. Junior high school students with LD are bad at cognitive functions, and they show significant differences in each cognitive function.
3. Junior high school students with LD with different gender and types of leaning disabilities show significant differences in social skills.
4. Junior high school students with LD with different gender, types of leaning disabilities, and intelligence show significant differences in cognitive functions.
5. There are significant correlations between cognitive functions and social skills of junior high school students with LD.
6. Based on the performance of cognitive function, we can predict how junior high school students with LD show their social skills.
On the basis of above research results, we offer some suggestion for teachers and potential researchers.
