Disabled people as “the different” in the light of sociological concepts and the light of sociological and psychological research
Abstract
Despite such research on the genesis of social prejudice against handicaped people, there have not
been found all the factors.
Attitudes to handicaped people - according to the results of the research - are conditioned by
numerous factors of social, cultural, demographical, economical and psychological type. They are also
conditioned by handicaped people’s own attitude to their disabilities.
Sociological research has proven that society creates many obstacles in social life of handicaped
people. More painful for them are social obstacles than the architectonic ones. Psychological research
concentrates on the genesis of social prejudice and its result. Society’s negative attitude to handicaped
people results mainly from the lack of knowledge on the needs of those people. Painful is also the fact
that children copy stereotypic behaviour of adults and play games with handicaped children rather unwillingly.
The process of breaking stereotypes and prejudice has to base on bringing the new generation up in
respect for handicaped people.
