Another purpose of this study was to determine what variables predict attitudes toward integration in both countries. A sample of 152 teachers in Haiti and 216 teachers in the United States, across public, private, and denominational high schools, were asked to complete a background questionnaire and the Opinions Relative to the Integration of Student with Disabilities scale (OR1). The predictor variables were gathered from the background questionnaire. The ORI was used to measure teachers\u2019 attitudes on a scale from favorable to unfavorable. The predictors were identified through their correlations with attitudes and through a stepwise regression. Consistent with predictions based on the assumption of a culture of teaching, results showed that teachers in both countries had similar attitudes toward students with disabilities. Years of experience was not a significant predictor when controlling for the effect of advanced degree. In regard to level of education, results showed that teachers in both countries with a graduate degree had more positive attitudes than teachers with a lower level of education. In addition, results indicated that more instructional tolerance was associated with more favorable attitudes. School climate (teacher\u2019s perceptions of the attitudes of other teachers) accounted for the largest variance in attitudes. Teachers were more favorable when they perceived that their colleagues also were favorable to integration. When the variables were grouped as a teacher\u2019s own experience and as a teacher\u2019s own cognitions and beliefs, results indicated that a teacher\u2019s cognitions and beliefs are a more potent predictor of positive attitudes than a teacher\u2019s overall teaching experience." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Classification" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "LC4031.D86 2003" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publication Date" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "2003" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Genre" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Academic theses" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Holding Location" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University Archives and Special Collections" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Resource Identifier" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "LC4031.D86 2003_DupouxErrol" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Language" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "English" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Permanent Link" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "http://sobekcmsrv.barrynet.barry.edu/AA00001814/00001" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Creator" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Dupoux, Errol" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Note" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Thesis (Ph.D.)--Barry University, 2003.", "Includes bibliographical references (leaves 144-194)." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "iv, 202 leaves ; 28 cm" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Miami, Fla." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Book" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Copyright Errol Dupoux.
