Findings Related to Research Hypotheses. The study's first hypothesis stated that: Saudi students attending college in Saudi Arabia will not score significantly differently on a test of perception regarding the field of special education when compared to Saudi students studying in the United States. Two levels of analyses were conducted to test this hypotheses. The first level consisted of a descriptive analysis in which students' mean scores, standard deviations, and score ranges were computed for the test of perception. These findings are presented in Table 1.The second level of analysis compared group means for significant differences using the student's t test with assumption of unequal variances. The findings observed for this analysis were significant (t = 4.1205; df=105.8, p =.0001). In other words, findings did reveal a significant difference between groups. Thus, the null hypothesis of no difference is not supported by the findings of the study. The second hypothesis tested in the study was also a null hypothesis. This hypothesis stated that: Saudi graduate students attending college in Saudi Arabia or in the United States will not score significantly different on a test of perception regarding the field of special education when compared to Saudi undergraduate students studying in Saudi Arabia and in the United States. Table 2 presents the means, standard deviations, and, Means, Standard Deviations, and Score Ranges

As can be seen from inspection of Table 6, most of the students in the sample were not special education majors. The sample was also found to range in age from 20 to 40; however, the majority of students were 25 years of age of younger, and over 91 percent of the sample was 30 years of age or younger. With respect to the residence demographic, the sample was pretty evenly divided with about half of the students living in the U.S. and a
