商品簡介
For all of the debates over adopting school uniforms as a part of educational reform, there has been little empirical examination of the relationship of uniform policy to student academic achievement, says Brunsma (sociology, U. of Alabama). Basing this work on the empirical research conducted in the United States, including many of his own research studies, he critically evaluates the literature on school uniform policies and reports on his own tests across all school sectors using multiple regression techniques. He also explores the history and legal contexts of the school uniform movement. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
