520 | |a This study examined literature coverage of issues related to ethnic and cultural minorities in two publications in the field of special education: "Exceptional Children" and "Teaching Exceptional Children." Leadership personnel within the Council for Exceptional Children (n=76) were surveyed concerning their opinions of multicultural content in the two journals. Results indicated that the 40 respondents felt the amount of minority coverage in both journals was inadequate. The respondents also perceived that the amount of coverage varied by group (Black, Hispanic, American Indian, Asian, Pacific Islander, or Alaskan Native/Native Canadian). An analysis of the content of the publications from 1985-1987 was also undertaken, which involved counting each occurrence of terms related to ethnic and multicultural concerns. Findings suggested that there were relatively few occurrences of the terms. "Teaching Exceptional Children" had very limited coverage of the topic. In "Exceptional Children," approximately 68 percent of the occurrences were related to Blacks and 24.5 percent were related to Hispanics. The remaining 7.5 percent of the occurrences were distributed among Asians (4%), American Indians (2.5%), and Pacific Islanders (1%). Terms related to Alaskan Natives/Native Canadians did not occur.
