| Abstract: |
The present study was generated by the desire to find out more about the attitudes toward school held by inner-city children, using an attitude survey. It was hoped that revisions of methodology for the survey would avoid the "white psychologist's fallacy." It was found that some students felt that learning was a pleasurable experience, that some students were "turned-off," and that schools contribute to the "turning-off" process. (DM) |
