Schools for the Mentally Retarded in a Labour Market Perspective.
Rosenqvist, Jerry
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v34 n3 p215-30 1990
Reasons why so few (approximately 16%) of former students from Swedish schools for the mentally retarded find employment without government subsidy are explored through interviews with 12 teachers, 2 parents, 11 vocational instructors, and 14 employer representatives. Problems with placement of the retarded are considered. (SLD)
