“…Frequently, "enhancing self-concept" is cited as a primary goal of special physical education, based on the perception that handicapped individuals have lower self-concepts than do their nonhandicapped peers. Some research studies comparing handicapped and nonhandicapped persons' self-concept are weak in design (see Kessler & Milligan, 1979), and others are contradictory in their findings. These contradictions may be understood in part by studying differences in self-concept based on the handicapping condition.…”

Humanistic goals related to the affective domain have been of considerable influence in the justification of mainstreaming. Physical educators have traditionally identified development in this domain as a salient educational outcome of physical activity and of physical education programs. Concerning handicapped children in regular physical education programs, the benefits related to development in the affective domain have been espoused and projected to be significant. However, development in the affective domain (especially as related to self-concept and self-efficacy) does not occur incidentally, but must be planned for. This article elaborates on the constructs of self-concept and self-efficacy and discusses the implications for developing or enhancing these constructs in mainstreamed handicapped children.

“…Some research strategies that can avoid these bypaths and yield more useful information will be suggested. For concreteness in communication, we refer particularly to a study by Kessler and Milligan (1979), and we also mention illustrations from Somervill, Veeder, Graw, and Sechovee (1979), and Numan and Barklind(1978).…”

The two most recent editors of Rehabilitation Psychology offer reflections and opinions concerning some shortcomings of rehabilitation research manuscripts they have examined in the past decade. They propose that rehabilitation psychology research can yield many more useful answers than have emerged thus far if researchers attend more closely to the following: (a) Select manipulable or potentially manipulable independent variables, (b) Employ variables that are directly related to the behavior of interest, (c) Use research designs and analyses that allow demonstration of appropriate control of variables, (d) Describe numerical data in ways that reveal what scores mean, (e) Supplement grouped data with finer grain analysis, (f) Report the real life significance of comparisons that are statistically significant. Emphasis was placed on the importance of beginning a study with psychological hypotheses, psychological concepts, and psychological phenomena in preference to present, frequent utilization of physical, temporal, geographical or other nonpsychological orientations.
