Hosp, John L.; Reschly, Daniel J.
Exceptional Children, v68 n2 p225-238 Win 2002
A study explored differences in the special education programming of 115 African-American and 115 Caucasian students (grades 3-5). Although a clear pattern was found in variables related to placement restrictiveness, the pattern was similar for African-American and Caucasian students. Variables include problem severity, presence of behavioral problems, and family involvement. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
