Learning Problem Solving with Friends - Compassion Skillsis part of a comprehensive problem-solving curriculum. This book focuses on compassion skills as the target skills for problem-solving, which include four sub-skills: (a) offering help, (b) telling white lies, (c) making a concession, sharing, taking turns, etc., and (d) stopping an action or a topic.
From this book, Learners will learn to flexibly generate strategies using visualization (i.e., the Problem-Solving Map), relational framing such as perspective-taking (Hayes et al., 2001), and talk-aloud about the thinking and planning process (Glass, 1992; Johnson & Chung, 1999), to effectively solve the following four corresponding types of novel social problems through multiple picture stories: (a) Others need help, (b) Telling the truth may hurt others' feelings, (c) There are conflicts of interest due to a lack of resources. (d) One's behaviour makes others not comfortable.
The curriculum is based on Contextual Behavioral Science (CBS).
