University student attitudes toward the inclusion of students with disabilities

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine whether graduate special education students' attitudes toward inclusion would be more positive than the attitudes of undergraduate special education students. A survey designed to determine how positive university student attitudes toward inclusion are, was distributed to undergraduate and graduate level special education classes at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Results indicated that undergraduate special education students were more likely to communicate a positive attitude toward the inclusion of students with disabilities in the regular education classroom, than graduate special education students.
