Abstract:
A inclusão escolar de alunos com necessidades educacionais especiais, embora amparada por lei, tem sido objeto de grandes questionamentos no que se refere às condições básicas necessárias para efetivá-la. Porém, entre estes alunos, destaca-se a dificuldade para inclusão daqueles com seqüela de paralisia cerebral que, por apresentarem um conjunto de comprometimentos associados, como o sensorial, o motor e/ou cognitivo, acabam encontrando barreiras ao serem inseridos nas classes de ensino regular. Partindo deste pressuposto, a presente pesquisa teve como objetivo investigar, a concepção de profe

Through this process, individuals evaluate their behaviour or attributes against their internal standards. Subsequently, this evaluation influences their self-concept.
