Changes in Attitudes toward Mainstreaming among Undergraduate Education Students.
Wilczenski, Felicia L.
Educational Research Quarterly, v17 n1 p5-17 Jan 1994
The Attitudes toward Mainstreaming Scale was administered to 233 undergraduate education majors, 110 of whom participated in a follow-up study. Students were generally willing to teach the disabled. Attitudes toward mainstreaming became more positive during professional preparation but declined after student teaching. Implications for teacher education are discussed. (SLD)
