Hodapp, Robert M.; Freeman, Stephanny F. N.; Kasari, Connie L.
Education and Training in Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities, v33 n4 p342-49 Dec 1998
A study examined how their child's type of mental retardation and educational placement affected 32 mothers of children with Prader-Willi syndrome and 32 mothers of children with Down syndrome. Both groups were satisfied with current placements; however, parents of students with Down syndrome were more likely to choose an inclusive placement. (Author/CR)
