A vast amount of research exists on the effect of social skills training on aggressive behavior. The current study investigated the effect of social skills training using the ACCEPTS program on the frequency of aggressive behavior of Grade 2 students in Eastwood College. Aggressive behavior was measured by the frequency recordings through behavioral observations during the pre-training and post-training phases for both the experimental (n=23) and the control (n=20) groups. The experimental group was the section of Grade 2 in Mansourieh campus, while the control group was the section of Grade 2 in the Kafarshima campus of Eastwood College.--An analysis of variance did not show significant differences between the experimental and control groups prior to the onset of the training. An analysis of variance showed significant differences in the post-training phase, thus showing a significant treatment effect. Moreover, teachers were asked questions about the quality of their students' social interactive behaviors. Teachers* descriptions were analyzed in terms of the trained social skills. Results were discussed and recommendations for future research were proposed.
