Abstract
A six-item survey was sent to state directors of special education (or their equivalent) in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Items were developed to assess the type and level of prereferral intervention usage reported by state level special education administrators. Despite a lack of empirical support and a relatively inconclusive success rate, many state level administrators reported that they require or recommend the use of prereferral intervention strategies.Keywords
