Note. Early/proactive, during interview process or during orientation; reactive, after a critical event or after milestones evaluation; No identification, I am not aware of learners who have needed accommodations; respondents who chose “other” for the timing of identification question were categorized as missing.

1Among timing categories (collapsed over program type), directors were more likely to report no identification or reactive identification than early/proactive identification of need for ADHD accommodations, χ2 goodness of fit(2, N=256)=99.84, P<.001. Cells with matching subscripts do not differ significantly from each other at the .05 level.

2Timing of identification of need for accommodations depended on program type, χ2test of independence(4, N=255)=10.61, P=.03.Within each type of program, cells with matching subscripts (a, b) do not differ significantly from each other at the .05 level.
