| Summary: | 博士 === 國立嘉義大學 === 教育學系研究所 === 99 === The purposes of this study were to analyze the special education needs for senior high school students with intellectual disabilities in Taiwan in terms of funding, weights, and differences. Data of this investigation were collected through questionnaire on a total of 650 students with different levels in the 98th school year. There were six important findings as follows:
1. The more severe the subjects' intellectual disabilities were, the more massive the special education funding needs were. Compared to general students, the extra special education funding for subjects regarding to their severities was: 180,157 for the mild, 226,789 for the moderate, 306,788 for the severe.
2. The more severe the subjects' intellectual disabilities were, the more the preferences of special education funding weighted. The weights were: 2.01 for the mild, 2.28 for the moderate, 2.73 for the severe.
3. Students with mild intellectual disabilities had great needs for vocational teachers and vocational guidance personnel.
4. The more severe the subjects' intellectual disabilities were, the more they needed personal devices for assistive learning and tuition grant.
5. The present funding for students with mild and severe intellectual disabilities was not sufficient, but the funding for students with moderate intellectual disabilities was more than needed.
6. The distribution of special education resources should be more individual differences oriented and vertically fair.
