Retrospection and Persistent School Absenteeism.
Reid, Ken
Educational Research, v25 n2 p110-15 Jun 1983
This paper presents and discusses data based on the perceptions of 128 persistent school absentees on their initial and continued reasons for missing school. The findings suggest that a greater proportion of the students were inclined to blame their institutions, rather than social or psychological factors, for their behavior. (SSH)
