My Child has a ‘Social Skill Deficit’ – What does that mean?

- Acquisition Deficit: child does not have knowledge for performing particular skill
- Example: Jack stands by the wall while watching a circle of his friends—he wants to join in but doesn’t know how to start the process. Example: Jack stands by the wall while watching a circle of his friends—he wants to join in but doesn’t know how to start the process.
- Performance Deficit: child has skill but is not motivated to perform skill
- Example: Jim can raise his hand in class, but instead he yells out to get his teacher’s attention.
