In everyday life, individuals will not be separated from social interaction. Children with special needs, such as mental retardation, experience limited ability to interact socially. One way that can be done to improve social interaction is to provide socialization group activity therapy. Socialization group activity therapy is a therapy used to improve social interaction skills. This research was conducted to determine the effect of socialization group activity therapy on the social interaction abilities of mentally retarded children. This type of research is quantitative, with a pre-experimental, one-group pre-post test design using an observation sheet measuring instrument. The sample for this study was 13 respondents at SDLB C Karya Ibu Palembang with a total sampling technique. The statistical analysis of this study uses marginal homogeneity with a value of  = 0.05.
