Abstract:

The main objective of this study was to examine people’s attitudes towards the integration of young people with disabilities in the army. Another objective was to examine the direct and indirect relationship between attitudes towards empathic ability and early acquaintance with a soldier with a disability. The sample included 649 participants, mean age = 27.64 (SD = 11.18). Attitudes were measured using three subscales: (1) the importance and contribution of integration, (2) labeling perception, and (3) the right to equality. Empathic ability was measured with a distinction between the cogniti

Abstract:

Active tourism improves human health and well-being regardless of age or disabilities. The paper analyses and describes current issues concerning the tourism of people with disabilities. The starting point is the currently insufficient availability of tourist offers for individuals with considerable motor dysfunctions. One of the causes for these limitations stems from deficiencies in transport means for people with disabilities. It was found that for a disabled passenger using public transport, it is crucial to consider its accessibility in the context of the entire transport system. Another

This system is dedicated to developing a Smart Medication Alert System using Arduino and various hardware components designed to improve medication adherence, particularly for individuals with disabilities. The system combines visual, auditory, and display-based notifications through LEDs, a buzzer, and an LCD screen, making it accessible to users with visual impairments or those managing complex medication schedules. With real-time tracking and user-specific reminders, the system prompts users about scheduled medication times, notifies them of missed doses, and provides dosage instructions if
