This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite increased school counselor roles regarding students with disabilities in recent years, a research gap existed with regard to how prepared school counselors felt in providing services to students with disabilities (SWD). Thus, in this study, the role of attitudes and school counselor training (e.g., courses related to SWD taken during undergraduate training, practical experiences with SWD completed during undergraduate training, and conferences/workshops attended after graduation) was examined in predicting the perceptions of preparedness. Participants were 101 practicing school counselors who completed the Attitudes toward Disabled Persons Scale-Form O as well as the School Counselor Preparation Survey-Revised online through survey monkey. Results indicated that school counselors felt between somewhat prepared and prepared to serve to SWD. In addition, school counselor attitudes toward students with disabilities appeared to be fairly lower than the attitudes of educators and other helping professionals in the U.S while being similar to the scores of the samples of the studies conducted in Turkey. The research design featured hierarchical regression, which involved entering type of training (courses, experiences, and conference/workshops) in the second block after entering attitudes in the first to control for their impact. The analysis revealed that type of training school counselors received to work with SWD and attitudes significantly predicted preparedness with an approximately 10% of variance explained. As evidenced by the correlation coefficient, the association of practical experiences with the preparedness scores was as significant as that of the attitudes. On the other hand, in the regression analysis, the contribution of the attitudes was slightly higher than that of the practical experiences in explaining the preparedness scores.

Score: 94, 4 Stars--Doody's Medical Reviews What are the differences between individuals with disabilities who flourish as opposed to those who never really adjust after a trauma? How are those born with a disability different from individuals who acquire one later in life? This is the first textbook about the psychosocial aspects of disability to provide students and practitioners of rehabilitation counseling with vivid insight into the experience of living with a disability. It features the first-person narratives of 16 people living with a variety of disabling conditions, which are integrated with sociological and societal perspectives toward disability, and strategies for counseling persons with disabilities. Using a minority model perspective to address disability, the book focuses on historical perspectives, cultural variants regarding disability, myths and misconceptions, the attitudes of special interest and occupational groups, the psychology of disability with a focus on positive psychology, and adjustments to disability by the individual and family. A wealth of counseling guidelines and useful strategies are geared specifically to individual disabilities. Key Features: Contains narratives of people living with blindness, hearing impairments, spinal cord injuries, muscular dystrophy, polio, mental illness, and other disabilities Provides counseling guidelines and strategies specifically geared toward specific disabilities, including "dos and don'ts" Includes psychological and sociological research relating to individual disabilities Discusses ongoing treatment issues and ethical dilemmas for rehabilitation counselors Presents thought-provoking discussion questions in each chapter Authored by prominent professor and researcher who became disabled as a young adult

Download or read book The Impact of Language and Disability Type on Attitudes Toward Persons with Disabilities written by Courtney Payne (‡e author) and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explored the ways in which the type of language used can influence attitudes about people with disabilities. The extent to which positive, neutral, or negative language about different disabilities influences able-bodied people's attitudes about those with disabilities was tested. This study examined the impact of language on the ways that different types of disabilities are perceived by exposing participants to one of three different language types about the disabled through vignettes. Participants were then asked to rank their preferences for roommates based on the person having one of five different disabilities. Overall attitudes towards the disabled did not differ based on the type of language participants were exposed to, but the Behaviors sub-scale of the Multidimensional Attitudes Toward Disabled Persons Scale (MAS; Findler, Vilchinsky, & Werner, 2007) showed significantly different scores for the negative (M = 19.79) and positive (M = 23.00) language conditions. Preferences for roommates were ranked differently based on the type of disability described in the vignette. The types of disabilities were ranked in the following order, from most to least preferable: (a) health condition (diabetes), (b) learning disability (dyslexia) (c) mental illness (PTSD), (d) deafness, and (e) mobility impairment (cerebral palsy).
