摘要：This study examined the effect of sociodrama on children`s loneliness and peer relations. Eight children each were assigned to an experimental or a control group. The experimental group enacted sociodrama for six weeks,and the control group did not have any treatment. The first post-test was conducted six weeks after the pre-test;the second post-test was eight weeks after the first post-test. Significant differences between the experimental and control groups were found for loneliness;that is,levels of loneliness and of negative peer relations decreased only in the experimental group. This effect for the experimental group was maintained at the second post-test. It was concluded that sociodrama was effective in reducing loneliness and in improving relationships of a child by improving self-adjustment..
