    Author: Saunders EJ.
    Journal: Am J Ment Defic; 1979 Sep; 84(2):206-8. PubMed ID: 495670.
    Abstract:
    Seventy-five staff members from four private residential facilities for mentally retarded adults were surveyed to elicit their attitudes toward the sexual behavior and sexual knowledge of residents in their care. Facility policies and programs applicable to residents' sexuality were also the subject of inquiry. Comparable attitudinal surveys and studies dealing with the sexuality of mentally retarded persons were reviewed in the context of the present findings.
