Abstract
Intergroup cooperation and intergroup competition were compared to determine whether they promoted systematic differences in interaction patterns and interpersonal attraction between high- and low-status students. Fifty-one fourth-grade students were assigned to conditions on a stratified random basis with handicap status and sex controlled. They participated in a study for 55 minutes a day for 10 instructional days. The results indicate that intergroup cooperation promoted more inclusion of handicapped students and more cross-handicap relationships.Keywords
