The Emotional and Social-Skill Improvement Program is proven powerful effect for children with emotional-behavioral problems. A packet of questionnaires measuring the self-esteem scale, peer relational skill scale, the emotional-behavioral problems scales were administered to 9 children in the experimental group and 7 children on a control group. The experimental group showed significant improvements over time in scores on the self-esteem scale, peer relational skill scale and the emotional- behavioral problems scales.
