false
is impairment consider objective or subjective
objective
is disability considered objective or subjective
subjective
individuals with the same degree of impairment do they have the same disability
no, it is subjective

what is: attitudes labeling and language perceived professional competency accessibility administrative support
context factors
what is context specific
external arising from people or places [ environmental]
what is: external arising from people or places [environmental]
context specific / context factors
what is person factors related to:
internal to the person
what does task related to
related to the activity
expand on context specific attitudes
attitudes: idea[s] charged with emotion leading to behaviours/actions in a specific situation
what are the two ways attitudes[context specific] are reflected in
- the way people fell [ people with disabilities are always depressed; children with disabilities are not smart]
- he way people behave[ people with disabilities should not be hired because they are incompetent, I do not have time or resources to create an integrated environment]
What are the 4 ways attitudes towards people are affected
- social factors
- physical factors
- person experience
- familiarity
what is do these affect:
- social factors
- physical factors
- personal experience
- familiarity
effectors of attitudes towards people
what are the effects of negative attitudes
- care-givers attitudes impact the success of an inclusive program[ degree of ‘difference’ affects the nature of attitudes ]
- lack of acceptance of program participants also inhibits inclusive process
- likely the nature of attitudes of teachers correlates with the attitudes of ‘typically’ functioning students
what are the three strategies for fostering acceptance attitudes
- through exposure to relevant information
- through simulation activities
- through personal experience[ contact theory]
who came up with the contact theory and when
Allport 1954
what does the contact theory assume
- that contact between individuals with differences produces positive attitudes when interactions are:
- frequent
- pleasant
- meaningful - the interactions must be also:
- planned
- off equal status
- long
- cooperative
what theory assumes: that contact between individuals with differences produces positive attitudes when interactions are: frequent, pleasant, meaningful and the interactions must also be: planned off equal status long and cooperative
contact theory
what are the behaviour changes after contact theory was implicated
- voluntary/ spontaneous
- carried over into leisure
- equal status
- frequent
- long
what are the attitudes changes after contact theory was implicated
opinions and beliefs
emotions and feelings
behavioural intentions
what is consider structured contacts
- frequent
- interactive
- focused on common goals
- meaningful
- promoting respect
- long
what is the preparation for structured contacts
assessment, planning and training
what are the positive side effects of labeling and language[ contest factors]
labels often may represent prerequisite for receiving services, funding, legal support and access to programs
what are the negative side effects of labeling and language [context factors] [6]
-stresses differences rather than similarities
-stresses individual deficits rather than societal and contextual factors
-stresses what one cannot do rather than emphasizing what one is able to achieve
-reduces individuality [uniqueness]
results in stereotyping
-implies stability/persistency of an issue
what are the two perceived professional competency [context factor]
- lack of collaboration between teachers and inadequate training of the professionals also represent essential barriers to an affective inclusive process
- lack of perceived competency to ‘deal’ with individuals with disabilities represents a critical factor
true or false : positive beliefs of teachers essential for quality instruction in an inclusive setting
true
what are the beliefs about teaching children with disabilities may be affected by:
perceived competence in teaching
amount of experience with children with disabilities
amount of training
type of disability present
Discussion on table 2 illustrating overall attitude… what did the teachers show little willingness
[negative belief] towards teaching children with cognitive and behavioural disabilities but had more favorable attitudes towards those with learning disabilities
discussion on table 2 illustrating overall attitude.. what is the strongest predictor of overall positive attitudes towards students with disabilities
perceived competency
true or false : taking adapted courses helps establish positive beliefs in teachers
true
what is accessibility [context factor]
accessibility barriers constitute anything that prevents an individual’s equal access and opportunity to facilities and programs
what are three barriers to accessibility
communication issues
transportation constraints
economic limitations
what is administrative support issues related to

- financial support for the required equipment
- time for increased training and professional development
- number/availability of support personnel [ex. SSP in Canadian school systems ]
what is knowledge [ personal factor]
- does ‘exercising’ affect my health/quality of life positively
- does the program exist?
- what rights do I have in regards to the access?
- is the necessary support available
what is motivation [personal factor] quote
‘people who are intrinsically motivated are likely to engage in physical activity more often, for a longer period of time and more meaningfully’
what is motivation
is the activation or energization of goal-orientated behaviour motivation is said to be intrinsic or extrinsic
what is self-efficacy
[perceived competency ] is people’s believe about their capabilities to produce effects/desired outcomes
what quote from Bandura 1977
‘intrinsic motivation has its roots in a person self-efficacy or belief about his/her capabilities to perform a specific activity or attain a desired outcome’
who came up with self-determination
Deci & Ryan 1985
what is self-determination theory
a person is intrinsically motivated when he/she has a high degree of sense of belonging, perceived competency and locus of control over life events
what are the three characteristics of the self-determination model
sense of belonging [relatedness]
locus of control
competency
what is sense of belonging [relatedness]
perception that a person is a vita/active part of the group and/or of the related processes
what is locus of control
perception of connection between one’s actions and their consequences
what is competency
perception that one’s abilities afford a functional completion of the task or more generally being successful at a particular activity
what are the two strategies for increasing confidence and motivation
- programs/activities have to be enjoyable and nonthreatening
- programs/activities can be successful, yet the dignity of risk also has to be preserved
what are the perceived risks of person related barriers
benefit-cost of participating related to physical as well as psychological well-being
what are the entrenched patterns of inactivity for person related barriers
- only 30% of older adults exercise regularly
- social status [low-income] demographic [race] and the degrees of perceptuo-motor cognitive [dys] function all may affect participation
equipment for task factors can vary in
weight, size, shape, height, speed, distance, sound, colour, trajectory, direction, surface contact, surface or texture, length and residency
how does activity selection and rules of the game chosen
- activities and their rules as well as their goals should be chosen based on participants

true or false Changes/ differences in initial conditions can lead to atypical development that can have short [ADHA] or long term effects on ones well being
true
true of false differences in initial condition occur [ex problems at birth ] the environment will have a different effect on the development of that individual
