Palmer, Rikard

Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v26 n4 p197-209 1982

A differential psychological survey of about 100 Swedish mentally retarded young people in the 18-25 age group was carried out between 1966-1971 and again about 10 years later to clarify the meaning of social adjustment in middle age. Methodological problems are examined and preliminary results of the analysis are discussed. (BRR)
