Popis:	Effects of academic major, gender, and hands-on experience on attitudes toward teaching individuals with disabilities were examined. Students (N = 2,943; 60% male) enrolled in the introductory adapted physical education course at 192 institutions of higher education in 44 states completed the Physical Educators’ Attitude Toward Individuals with Disabilities-Ill Preservice Version (PEATID–III PS) (Rizzo, 1993b) during the last 2 weeks of the academic term. Average attitude score from the PEATID–III PS was the dependent variable. A 3 × 2 × 2 (Major × Gender × Experience) factorial analysis of variance and post hoc analysis revealed that (a) students with majors other than physical education displayed more positive attitudes than physical education majors, (b) women displayed more positive attitudes than men, and (c) students with hands-on experience displayed more positive attitudes than those without experience.
