ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influences of the interpersonal competence of the disabled students in inclusive classrooms on their social participation. Total 253 teachers who were teaching in an inclusive class in elementary school took part in the study. The research tools employed in the study include the Scale of Interpersonal Competence by Cairns et al. and the Scale of Social Participation by Koster et al(2008). The research findings show that the interpersonal characteristics of the disabled students were related to their academic levels, external characteristics, communication skills and had important impacts on their social participation. Based on those findings, the study proposed plans for the promotion of their social participation in inclusive class according to the variables related to students with disabilities and those related to teachers teaching an inclusive class.
