Levels of Contact with Hearing Impaired Mainstreamed Students and Attitudes towards Deafness and towards Disabilities.
Weisel, Amatzia
International Journal of Special Education, v4 n1 p17-24 1989
The study found that 74 seventh- and eighth-grade students with either high or moderate contact with hearing impaired students expressed more positive attitudes toward deafness than students who had no contact with the hearing impaired. A similar pattern was found when attitudes toward disabilities in general were evaluated. (DB)
