Popis: Objective: To investigate the social skills of children with intellectual disabilities (ID) from Shandong and Guangdong provinces in China and to analyze the factors affecting social skills to provide evidence for interventions to improve the social skills of children with ID. Methods: In this study, the Social Responsiveness Scale-Short Form was used as the survey instrument, with parents of children with ID aged 6-18 years as participants. A total of 692 valid samples were collected. Descriptive statistics were used to examine the level of social skills of children with ID and stepwise regression analysis was used to identify factors affecting social skills. Results: The mean score of social skills of children with ID was 2.64, with a median score of 2.67. Children with ID have moderate to low levels of social skills. There were significant differences in social skills related to the child’s language, the child’s behavior problem, the mother’s education, the father’s education, and the family’s monthly income, but no significant differences in social skills in the child’s gender and child’s age. Children's behavior problems and language level can predict the social skills of children with ID. Keywords: Children with intellectual disabilities, social skills, parents,level, factors.
