| Popis: | 100 The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a self-determination program on promoting the leisure knowledge and skills of three vocational high school students with severe intellectual disabilities. A single subject design using multiple-probe across student method was conducted to evaluate student progress across research. Each student received 15 sessions of instruction in which students were taught knowledge and skills related to self-realization, choice making, decision making, self-regulation, and problem solving in the field of leisure activities. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected to evaluate the effects of the program. The data was analyzed using visual analysis, C statistic method as well as feedbacks from teachers, parents, and students themselves. Results showed that both quantitative and qualitative data indicated the positive influence of the self-determination program. Specifically, participating students’ knowledge and skills of leisure activity improved evidently across time. Teachers and parents interviewe indicated that students’ leisure skills did improve and expresse positive attitudes toward the self-determination program. Overall, findings of the study were consistent with results found in previous research, indicating that self-determination knowledge and skills of students with intellectual disabilities can be promoted when the appropriate instructional program is provided.
