Contextual Factors Influencing the Sociability of Preschool Children with Disabilities in Integrated and Segregated Classrooms.
Sontag, Joanne Curry
Exceptional Children, v63 n3 p389-404 Spr 1997
This study compared the contextual classroom features of public school segregated classrooms and community-based integrated classrooms for 16 preschool children with disabilities, by examining the relations between classroom characteristics and child sociability. The two classroom contexts were found to be similar, with no differences in child sociability; however, a significant relationship between teacher verbal prompting and child sociability was found.
