Influencing Preschoolers' Awareness and Feelings regarding Depicted Physical Disabilities.
Eggers, Nancy L.
Early Child Development and Care, v12 n2 p119-26 Sep 1983
Subjects in an experimental group received a 30-minute instructional presentation consisting of a filmstrip about a handicapped child, descriptions of spasticity and flaccidity, and role play with five orthopedic appliances. In comparison with control group subjects, experimental group members demonstrated an increased awareness of the appliances and more frequently expressed feelings of sadness. (Author/RH)
