Special Education Use among the Negev Bedouin Arabs of Israel: a case of minority underrepresentation?

Link: http://search.epnet.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=aph&an=8587973

This study takes the well-documented minority overrepresentation/ disproportionality debate a step forward by asking if, and in what ways, overrepresentation and disproportionality may be seen among a non-American minority group, namely, the Arab citizens of Israel. Statistical evidence suggests that Arab children are more likely than Jewish children to be diagnosed as retarded and to be sent to special education schools.
