Mark; Loomis, Colleen; Belanger, Jean-Marc; Evers, Susan; Maltais, Claire; Thompson, Katherine; Rossiter, Melissa D. – Monographs of the Society for Research in Child Development, 2010

Peer reviewedSack, R. Terry; Sack, Kathryn S. – Psychology in the Schools, 1974
This study suggests that teachers and mental hygienists continue to hold differing attitudes toward student behaviors and their effects on mental health. It is likely that differential training and role expectations of these two groups have contributed to the stability of their different attitudes toward behavior and mental health. (Author/PC)

Peer reviewedSeefeldt, Carol; And Others – Educational Gerontology, 1977
The CATE (Children's Attitudes Toward the Elderly) was administered to 180 children, 20 at each level from age three to age 11. Results suggest that children at all age levels have limited knowledge of and contact with older people. Children's concepts of age increase in accuracy with increases in age. (Author)

Peer reviewedVan Hagen, John; Kaufman, Alan S. – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1975
The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children was administered to 80 retarded youngsters from ages 6 to 16 years. The factors found for the retarded children are similar to those found for normal children. This similarity suggests there may be no qualitative differences in intelligence structure for normal and retarded children. (Author/SJL)
