Difficulties in relationships between nonhandicapped and severely mentally retarded children (ages 8-12) were examined as a function of the presence or absence of additional physical handicapping conditions. Two sets of data, involving multiple codes of both the handicapped and nonhandicapped children's behavior, were analyzed and aggregated to address this issue. Findings suggested that nonhandicapped children work harder, receive and emit fewer social reinforcers, have less opportunity to play and have fun, and achieve lower levels of social play when their playmate is physically handicapped as well as severely mentally retarded. Implications for the longevity of social relationships with and the community survival of severely multiply handicapped persons are discussed. Strategies for increasing the reinforcement potential of relationships with multiply handicapped children are proposed for future research and implementation.
研究了正常儿童与重度智力发育迟缓儿童（8至12岁）之间的关系困难，将其作为是否存在其他身体残疾状况的一个函数。分析并汇总了两组数据，这些数据涉及残疾儿童和正常儿童行为的多重编码，以解决这一问题。研究结果表明，当正常儿童的玩伴既有身体残疾又有重度智力发育迟缓时，他们会更加努力，获得和发出的社会强化物更少，玩耍和娱乐的机会更少，并且社交游戏水平更低。讨论了与重度多重残疾者的社会关系的持久性及其社区生存的影响。为未来的研究和实施提出了提高与多重残疾儿童关系的强化潜力的策略。
