Exercises in Integration.

Evans, Bob; Simmons, Katy

British Journal of Special Education, v14 n3 p115-17 Sep 1987

Normal children (average age 11, n=25) and multiply disabled children (aged 9-15, n=8) were integrated in physical education classes, emphasizing work with disabled-normal dyads. Girls were more willing than boys to accept disabled children into their groups, but during individual activities, boys were less reticent about making physical contact. (JDD)
