ASSET:
A Social Skills Program for Adolescents
Dr. J. Stephen Hazel, Dr. Jean Bragg Schumaker, Dr. James A. Sherman, and Dr. Jan Sheldon
ASSET is a video-based training package that includes eight videotapes, a
174-page leader's guide, and a set of reproducible program materials. The
training approach combines videotaped modeling scenes, group discussions,
role plays, and homework assignments to teach adolescents the skills they
need for successful social interactions. The videotapes feature 32 realistic
scenes of adolescents modeling appropriate and inappropriate behaviors with
peers, parents, teachers, and other adults. Peer narrators introduce each
scene, discuss what went right or wrong, and suggest additional ways of
handling the situations.
ASSET's eight videotapes serve as powerful teaching tools. Each tape contains four
vignettes that focus on a specific skill area. These areas have been selected as critical
to social development by psychologists, educators, parents, and teenagers themselves.
Tape 1 Giving Positive Feedback -- Thanking or complimenting others.
Tape 2 Giving Negative Feedback -- Expressing criticism or disappointment in a calm,
nonthreatening manner.
Tape 3 Accepting Negative Feedback -- Listening calmly to criticism, asking permission to
tell your side of the story.
Tape 4 Resisting Peer Pressure -- Saying no, giving a personal reason, suggesting
