100%). The peer-mediated intervention resulted in a small decrease in positive peer
interaction. Again, however, the percentage of positive peer interaction was still at a very
high level.
Phillip. The third panel of Figure 6.15 represents the percentage of Phillip’s positive
peer interactions and stays in the Music Hut in the four study conditions, with a total of 63
sessions altogether. In baseline measurements, no Music Hut was available, and Phillip’s
positive peer interactions were expectedly quite low. After the Music Hut was opened
(Condition B), Phillip’s stay in the Music Hut ranged from 2.5% to 62.5%. Only in six
sessions did he stay more than 30% of the allotted time. The adaptation of the playground
resulted in a small increase in Phillip’s positive peer interactions with quite consistent
readings to follow. With the teacher-mediated intervention (Condition C), Phillip’s stay in
the Music Hut ranged from 70% to 100%. It resulted in a sharp increase in the level of data,
although it was variable across days. During the peer-mediated intervention (Condition D)
Phillip continued to stay in the Music Hut for a sustained period (range: 95% to 100). The
peer-mediated intervention resulted in a small decrease of positive peer interaction, but the
percentage of positive peer interaction remained at a very high level.
Lucas. Lucas was observed a total of 71 sessions. The bottom panel of Figure 6.15
shows the percentage of Lucas’ positive peer interactions and stays in the Music Hut, broken
at by each condition of the study. In the baseline condition, no Music Hut was available,
and Lucas’ positive peer interaction was very low and stable. When the Music Hut opened
(Condition B), Lucas’ stay in the Music Hut ranged from 2.5% to 80%. In 15 sessions he
