Abstract

Taiwan is in the nascent stage of supporting postsecondary students with disabilities in terms of their educational rights and opportunities. The primary purpose of the present study was to examine Taiwanese university faculty members' perceptions toward and their inclusive instruction actions. The second objective of the study was to examine their understanding regarding disability, specifically in terms of four issues: legal knowledge, accommodations policy, disability etiquette, and disability characteristics. One hundred and fourteen (114) university faculty members from a public teaching university in central Taiwan participated in the study. Results of chi-square analyses indicated that participants had positive attitudes toward inclusive instruction. This finding, however, did not equate with inclusive classroom instruction. Also, legal knowledge and disability characteristics were two primary aspects of disability understanding that participants were not familiar with or that they perceived were not addressed properly in their faculty training. A thorough discussion and future research suggestions were provided in order to delineate a better understanding of the impact of faculty member attitudes and inclusive instruction actions on Taiwanese college students with disabilities in postsecondary education.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine and describe the perceptions of Taiwanese mothers who have children with mild to moderate mental retardation as their children enter their teenage years (13-15 years of age). The focus is on whether these mothers' attitudes toward their children and other individuals with disabilities changed after they had experience in raising their own children with disabilities. The results of this qualitative study indicated that having experience in raising children with disabilities led participants to have a more positive outlook toward their children and others with disabilities. In addition, the results of this study demonstrated that the majority of interviewees believed that karma was a factor in their young teenagers being born with disabilities.

Abstract

This study investigated the attitudes of Taiwanese employees toward individuals and their supported coworkers with intellectual disabilities (ID). The findings indicated that the general attitudes of Taiwanese employees toward individuals with ID and their affective reactions toward their coworkers with ID were positive. These discoveries were contrary to previous beliefs that Taiwanese people tended to have societal stigma toward people and coworkers with ID. The outcomes also showed that the participants who had longer work contact with their coworkers with ID tended to have more positive attitudes toward them. Therefore, promoting supported employment trainings and opportunities for qualified people with ID was recommended.
