Model instructional program for mainstreaming handicapped children.
The purpose of this study was to implement and test the effectiveness of an instructional program designed to teach normal children about cerebral palsy. Presentation of the program to 17 first-grade children resulted in a significant increase in the students' knowledge of the disability, compared to that of a control group. Implications of these results for physical and occupational therapists involved in facilitating placement of handicapped children into the least restrictive environment were discussed.
