Effects of a Film on Nonhandicapped Children's Attitudes toward Handicapped Children.
Westervelt, Van D.; McKinney, James D.
Exceptional Children, v46 n4 p294-96 Jan 1980
The study involving 46 fourth graders evaluated the effects of a film pointing out how aspirations and interests of handicapped children are similar to those of nonhandicapped classmates. The film did not appear to be sufficient to handle all questions nonhandicapped children might have about handicapped peers, and its effect did not appear to be permanent. (SBH)
