Observable actions in social interaction skills include which of the following?

• A. Use of language, communicative gestures, maintaining eye contact, and relating to others appropriately.
• B. Running speed and endurance.
• C. Handwriting legibility.
• D. Problem-solving in mathematical contexts.

Answer: (A)

Observable social interaction skills are shown through what you can see someone doing during social exchanges. This includes using language to communicate ideas, acting with communicative gestures to support message meaning, maintaining eye contact to show attention and engagement, and relating to others in appropriate, reciprocal ways (taking turns, responding to others, showing interest). These outward behaviors demonstrate how a person handles social interaction in real situations.

Other options don’t fit because they focus on non-social abilities: running speed and endurance reflect physical fitness and gross motor function; handwriting legibility relates to fine motor skills and academic writing; problem-solving in mathematics is a cognitive/academic task.
