Wang, Margaret C.; Baker, Edward T.
Journal of Special Education, v19 n4 p503-21 Win 1985-86
A meta-analysis was performed on 11 empirical studies of the effects of mainstreaming. Results indicated that mainstreamed disabled students consistently outperformed nonmainstreamed students with comparable special education classifications. The most success was found in programs with design features (such as continuous assessment) suggested by the effective teaching literature. (Author/DB)
