Elementary Teachers' Referral to Special Education in Light of Inclusion and Prereferral: "Every Child Is Here To Learn...But Some of These Children Are in Real Trouble."
Mamlin, Nancy; Harris, Karen R.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v90 n3 p385-96 Sep 1998

Promising impacts of prereferral and inclusion practices are found, and issues surrounding learning disabilities are highlighted. (SLD)
