Abstract:

Abstract Researchers and Institutional Review Board (IRB) members' attitudes influence scientific knowledge about individuals with intellectual disability. We recruited 260 intellectual disability researchers and IRB members to develop a measure of attitudes toward the research participation of adults with intellectual disability, the Participation in Research Attitude Scale. Findings suggest three conceptual domains: Opportunity and Choice, Help in Decision Making, and Beneficence. We also examined individual differences in attitudes and the relationships between general and specific attitude

Abstract:

Attitude is a multidimensional and complex notion that considerably empowers or limits the major life activities of humans. Health professionals’ attitudes toward people with disabilities are significant factors in the rehabilitation process. Soon after completing their coursework, the final-year students from health science meet the patients and rehabilitate them. This study accordingly aims to assess the attitude toward disability among final-year health science students before and after administering a disability-specific structured teaching program. A total of 243 final-year undergraduate

The guess of a greater contribution of heredity as the basis of intellectual disability and of fewer such persons in the future of their own families than in the general population was associated with greater negative attitudes toward persons with intellectual disability.

Abstract:

Parental attitudes are considered in a positive or negative context. Parents with correct attitudes have a greater ability to objectively assess the child as a result of an appropriate, moderate attitude towards him and the acceptance of his or her personality. Psychological research on erroneous educational attitudes determines the directions in which the behavior of the child may develop. Negative parental attitudes cause such strong and permanent damage to the child’s moral and social development that the educational methods used by the school are no longer able to remove these distortions

Even within just a decade, all explicit responses showed change toward attitude neutrality.

However, it remains unclear how the superordinate context of disability, which is frequently used by journalists to depict PWDs in the media – or other contexts (e.g., sports) – affect recipients’ attitudes toward those PWDs portrayed in the media.
