- The article is built upon a historical study of the establishment of an early form of school ("Hjälpskolan") in the Nordic countries. It is shown that in the public educational discussion in the beginning of this century, stress was laid on involvement and integration of the deviant and poor children into regular education. Notwithstanding, during the first decades of this century the segregated form of school became common. The author relates questions about what "abnormality" is to the overall discussion of "deviance" in contemporary education policy and to the prevailing epistemological debates. Furtermore, determinants of the emerging discourse "specialpedagogik" are specified, e.g. how "deviance" is socially constructed, how its understanding is corraborated in the philosophy of science, and how theories in fields or disciplines like macroeconomics, social policy, education, physiology, and psychology have contributed to the development of "specialpedagogik".

- Few studies have been conducted with focus on implementation of assistive technology for persons with mental retardation at day centres. This study elucidates some of the factors affecting the implementation and also reveals the results from an empirical survey on education and attitudes towards usage of new technology by day centre staff. The importance of staff education on mental retardation, assistive technology, adaptation of devices and methods for training is stressed.

Still picture telephone use by persons with profound mental retardation : a pilot study
- 1995

- A common perception is that persons with mental retardation are not expected to be able to benefit from advanced technology. This pilot study describes how four adults with profound mental retardation use one form of advanced communication equipment, namely still picture telephones. The findings based on questionnaires, interviews, diary notes and records refute the belief that mental retardation and high tech are not incompatible. On the contrary, the study suggests that a still picture telephone may become a necessary support to get access to telecommunications for those persons.
