The derived categories were: comparative studies of outcomes: other outcome studies; non\u2010comparative qualitative studies including non\u2010experimental case studies; teacher practice and development; teacher attitudes; and the use of teaching assistants.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Results.<\/jats:bold>\n                    Only 14 papers (1.0%) were identified as comparative outcome studies of children with some form of SEN. Measures used varied but included social as well as educational outcomes. Other papers included qualitative studies of inclusive practice, some of which used a non\u2010comparative case study design while others were based on respondent's judgements, or explored process factors including teacher attitudes and the use of teaching assistants.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>Conclusions.<\/jats:bold>\n                    Inclusive education\/mainstreaming has been promoted on two bases: the rights of children to be included in mainstream education and the proposition that inclusive education is more effective. This review focuses on the latter issue. The evidence from this review does not provide a clear endorsement for the positive effects of inclusion. There is a lack of evidence from appropriate studies and, where evidence does exist, the balance was only marginally positive. It is argued that the policy has been driven by a concern for children's rights. The important task now is to research more thoroughly the mediators and moderators that support the optimal education for children with SEN and disabilities and, as a consequence, develop an evidence\u2010based approach to these children's education.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1348\/000709906x156881","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,3,21]],"date-time":"2007-03-21T18:44:27Z","timestamp":1174502667000},"page":"1-24","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":460,"title":["Educational psychology and the effectiveness of inclusive education\/mainstreaming"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"77","author":[{"given":"Geoff","family":"Lindsay","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/088562500361718"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/08856250110040712"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/13603110010017169"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/08856250210129056"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","first-page":"33","article-title":"The effects of inclusion on learning","volume":"52","author":"Baker E.
