Free Effects of Integration on Levels of Autistic Behavior.
McGee, Gail G.; And Others
Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, v13 n1 p57-67 Spr 1993
This study, based on observation of 28 children with autism in an integrated preschool, explored whether differing levels of autistic behavior were associated with the presence of nondisabled children or with the presence of other children with autism. Results indicated significantly decreased levels of autistic behavior corresponding to the close availability of nondisabled peers. (Author/JDD)
