Hastings, Richard P.; Graham, Sarah
Educational Psychology: An International Journal of Experimental Educational Psychology, v15 n2 p149-59 May 1995

Reports on a study of 128 adolescents in integrated and nonintegrated schools. Finds that the frequency of contacts, not the type of school attended, led to more positive expectations. (CFR)
