Training, Experience, and Child Care Providers' Perceptions of Inclusion.

Mulvihill, Beverly A.; Shearer, Darlene; Van Horn, M. Lee

Early Childhood Research Quarterly, v17 n2 p197-215 2002

Survey investigated center- and home-based child caregivers' perceptions of inclusion-related needs and barriers, participation in disability-related training, and current experience working with children with disabilities. Responses indicated that program and provider characteristics are related to participation in disability-related training and serving children with disabilities that, in turn, are related to perceptions of needs and barriers, but not attitudes.
