Elkabetz, R.; And Others
International Journal of Rehabilitation Research, v13 n3 p258-61 Sep 1990
This study examined the impact of facial plastic surgery, labeling (mentally retarded, normal, Down's syndrome), and level of knowledge of Down's syndrome on 127 student teachers' evaluations of slides of persons with such characteristics. Although there was no overall significant main effect for the pre-post operation condition, there was a positive effect for boys. (DB)
