- Abstract
The article examines the validity and reliability of the Larrivee and Cook Attitudes Toward Mainstreaming Scale using principal component analysis. The subjects were students enrolled in the College of Education at the University of Washington during spring quarter of 1981. The findings showed that the attitudes of students toward mainstreaming are multifaceted. It also suggested that the increasing preservice teachers' knowledge may not concomitantly produce more positive attitudes toward the mainstreaming of exceptional children.
