Behavioural and developmental gains made in a therapeutic preschool and an integrated day care program: a pilot study.
The outcomes after 8 months treatment for mildly delayed, behaviorally disordered preschoolers in a therapeutic preschool were compared with outcomes for similar children integrated into daycare centres on measures of development, language and behaviour. The results provide a measure of the gains achievable in a well resourced and specialized program.
