Problems in the Delivery of the School Based Psycho-Educational Services to the Asian Immigrant Children.

Kim, Yang J.

Journal of Children in Contemporary Society, v15 n3 p81-89 Spr 1983

Holds that delivery of social, psychological, and educational services to Asian immigrant children is hampered by: (1) referral-inhibiting characteristics of children (including passivity and conformity); (2) teachers' stereotyped expectations; and (3) referral-discouraging educational policies. Presents recommendations for multicultural and multidisciplinary programs to meet immigrant children's needs. (Author/MJL)
