  • 우리나라에서는 장애인의 인권보장과 차별금지를 위해 과거에 장애인복지법을 개정하는 등의 노력을 경주하기는 하였으나, 인권보장과 차별금지에 관한 조항들이 여전히 강력한 처벌 규정이나 구체적인 구제방법을 담지 못하는 등의 한계를 보였다. 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위한 노력으로 장애인차별금지 및 권리 구제 등에 관한 법률(이하 "장애인차별금지법")이 2007년 3월 6일 국회를 통과하여 법률 제8341호로 제정되었고, 2008년 4월 11일부터 시행되고 있다. 장애인의 완전한 참여와 평등을 확보하기 위한 실질적 기초는 평등권의 보장에 있다. 모든 영역에 있어서 소극적으로는 장애인에 대한 부당한 갖가지의 차별을 방지하고, 적극적으로는 장애인에 대한 사회적 물리적 제약요인을 제거함으로써 "현재의 장애인"과 "잠재적 장애인" 사이에 실질적 평등이 구현되는 것이다. 장애인에게 필요한 것은 돈과 쌀만이 아니라, 근본적으로 이 사회의 구성원으로서 차별을 받지 아니하고, 실질적으로 평등하게 인간으로서의 존엄과 가치를 인정받고 행복을 추구하며 함께 살아가야 하는 것이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 첫 출발이 장애인차별금지법의 올바른 시행이라고 본다.

  • Purpose: Sports activities for life are an opportunity to fulfill the basic desire to be healthy and participate in society of the individual level, and it is also the realization of the trend of living together with persons without disabilities and persons with disabilities at the level of social inclusion. I try to propose to improve sports participation of persons with disabilities from the point of view of 'Universal Design.' Methods: Firstly, analysing of previous studies which to classify the barrier free certification standards to universal design's 7 principles and which to investigate public sports facilities. Secondly, reanalyzing, based on UD 7 principles, the raw data of the research results of public sports facilities in Seoul. Thirdly. then, I suggest the improvement plan to promote public sports facilities for all the people including persons with disabilities. Results: The results of this study are that although the facilities have the basic accessibility, there were some inconveniences in using the facility for the elderly and the disabled. So I suggest a few method to improve the public sports facilities from the perspective of universal design : 1) Needs to expand 'Bandabi Sports Center' as a sports facilities for sports activities for life of all of people, 2) Needs to improve accessibility of existing public sports facilities and to raise awareness for the persons with disabilities and universal design, 3) Needs to produce 'UD guidelines' for the sports facilities.

  • 이 연구는 근거이론 방법을 활용하여 중도장애인의 레질리언스 과정을 분석한 것이다. 이를 위해 갑작스러운 사고로 장애를 갖게 된 중도장애인 8명을 심층 인터뷰하였다. 연구 결과, 총 393개의 개념이 도출되었고, 이를 45개의 하위범주, 18개의 상위범주로 유목화할 수 있었다. 중도장애인 레질리언스 과정의 패러다임 모형에서 인과적 조건은 '장애에 대해 모름', '너무 아파 힘듦', 심리적 고통으로 '마음 안으로 숨어듦'인 것으로 나타났다. 맥락적 조건으로는 '집에만 있어 무기력해지고', 장애인정이 어려워 '스스로 장벽을 쌓으며', 장애에 대한 '사회적 장벽'으로 좌절을 경험하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 장애유형, 장애정도, 성(gender), 장애획득시기, 중도장애 여부 등에 따라 레질리언스에 차이가 있음을 보고하였다. 이러한 인과적 조건과 맥락적 조건에도 불구하고 중도장애인이 레질리언스를 갖게 되는 중심현상은 '긍정의 힘에 탄력이 붙음'으로 확인되었다. 이러한 중심현상을 촉진 혹은 억제하는 중재조건으로는 외적으로 가족, 친구, 주변사람, 제도의 지원을 통해 '혼자가 아님을 깨닫고', 내적으로 종교의 힘과 모델링을 통하여 '변화의 의지와 삶의 목표를 가지고 내일을 준비하는' 것으로 나타났다. 작용/상호작용전략은 '노력을 배가하고', '직접 찾아보며', '능동적으로 실행하기'로 나타났으며 그 결과 중도장애인들은 장애와 사회에 대한 '관점이 달라지고', 삶의 '여유가 생기며', 매사에 '적극적으로 참여함'을 알 수 있었다. 중도장애인 레질리언스 과정의 핵심범주는 '긍정의 힘을 믿으며 주도적으로 나의 삶 선택하기'이었으며, 이는 장애인 레질리언스에서 선택과 자기결정을 통한 주도성의 확보가 매우 중요함을 보여주는 것이다. 과정분석에서는 '고통', '낯섬', '성찰', '일상' 단계로 확인되었으며, 이 단계들은 단선적이기보다는 역동적인 순환과정으로 나타났다. 이 과정에서 중도장애인의 레질리언스 유형은 존재성찰형, 진로개척형, 은근노력형, 적극실행형으로 구분되었다. 또한 개인, 가족 및 친구, 사회 및 제도 차원의 위험 및 보호요인에 관한 상황모형을 정리함으로써, 향후 실천적 개입을 위한 기초 자료를 제시하였다. 본 연구는 국내에서 처음으로 중도장애인의 레질리언스 과정을 근거이론 방법을 활용하여 심층적 이해를 구축하면서 그 과정 및 유형, 상황모형 등을 구체적으로 밝힘으로써 중도장애인 연구에 관한 이론구축 및 정책적, 임상적 개입에 그 함의가 클 것으로 기대한다.

  • In most persons with disabilities had poor oral hygiene because of less attention and ability to perform a dental care. So the increased prevalence and severity of dental disease were common oral state. Although most persons with disabilities need a adequate dental treatment, it is often very difficult to treat because of noncooperativity and involuntary muscle movements. Dental treatments under sedation and general anesthesia were make to provide a high-quality dental service because of decreased anxiety and fear associated dental treatment in persons with disabilities. The dental professionals must be able to select and apply the proper sedation methods in agreement with the characteristics of the disabilities, general conditions, sedation experience and capacity of dentist, type and time of dental treatment, equipments of dental clinic, consent of patient's protector. The proshodontic treatment procedures, such as abutment preparation, dental impression taking process, try-in process of prosthesis and adjustment of occlusion, are difficult even for patients without disabilities. Those procedures are more difficult to patients with disability because it's too hard to control breathing and muscle. In this report, we performed prosthetic dentistry procedures to three patients with disabilities under dental sedation and general anesthesia.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a computer access assessment tool for persons with physical disabilities and to evaluate reliability and validity. Methods: We developed a computerized Computer access Assessment Program (CAP) through many kinds of literature review and tools analysis for evaluation of computer access, task analysis of fundamental input devices operation and expert review. The CAP data were obtained from 105 normal university students and 16 students with physical disabilities. The test items of CAP are composed of four timed mouse tasks, four timed keyboard tasks, and a timed scanning task. Thus, the software measures user performance in skills needed for computer interaction, such as keyboard and pointer use, navigating through menus, and scanning. To determine the validity of these measurements, we compared data on CAP reports to a Compass report. Compass software allows an evaluator for assessment of an individual's computer input skills. Results: Results of this study showed that the CAP had high internal consistency, reliability of test-retest, concurrent validity, and convergent validity. Conclusion: Therefore, the CAP is appropriate for evaluation and determination of computer access skill of persons with physical disabilities. It is possible to get clear quantitative data on performance when providing computer access services if you can use the CAP data. Using this quantitative evidence, insights can be gained into the specific nature of any difficulties experienced by persons with physical disabilities and find wise solutions.

  • This article examines the accessibility and usability of library websites to students with visual and physical disabilities in public universities in Kenya. The study used survey research design and adopted a mixed methods approach. Data were gathered using survey questionnaire, focus group discussions, structured interviews, and observation. The study population consisted of six public universities that had a longstanding tradition of enrolling students with disabilities. Census was used to obtain a study sample comprising of students with visual disabilities (86), students with physical disabilities (91), University Librarians (6), Personnel from Disability Mainstreaming departments (6), Systems Librarians (6) and Library Personnel who provided information services to students with disabilities (133). The Social Model of Disability and IFLA Access to Libraries for Persons with Disabilities checklist were used as conceptual and theoretical framework in the study. Study results revealed that all the libraries had library websites. However, the websites did not have disability services page or information specific to individuals with disabilities. Also a section of students with disabilities lacked awareness of the existence of library websites and e-resources available through them. Additionally, the website design posed various access challenges. The study concluded that people with disabilities were excluded from access and use of library websites in public universities. The authors recommended that library websites must contain disability services page containing information specific to persons with disabilities. Moreover, libraries should evaluate their websites to ensure compliance with W3C requirements for web content accessibility. Additionally, libraries should develop disability policy to provide guidance on provision of information services to persons with disabilities.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 장애이해교육이 비장애아동의 장애아동에 대한 수용태도에 미치는 영향을 분석하여, 성공적인 통합교육을 실천하는데 기초자료로 활용하고자 한다. 연구결과 장애이해교육이 비장애아동의 장애아동에 대한 학교생활과 개인생활 수용태도는 긍정적으로 변화하였다. 이는 장애이해교육이 시간을 무조건 많이 제공하기보다는 4주라는 짧은 시간이라도 효과가 있다는 것을 단적으로 보여주고 있다. 그러나 사회생활 수용태도는 긍정적인 영향을 미치지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 비장애아동들의 사회생활에 대한 수용태도 변화를 이끌어내기 위해서는 비장애인의 잘못된 장애인식이나, 장애에 대한 무지로 인한 차별을 해소하기 위해 지속적이고 다양한 접근방식의 장애이해교육 프로그램이 개발되어야 한다.

  • Objectives: This study investigated the need for nutrition education aimed at improving the health of residents and users of social welfare facilities for persons with disability and aimed to provide basic information for developing a nutrition education program that meets the needs of the field. Methods: Altogether, 249 employees working in social welfare facilities for people with disabilities were included in the study. Data on the health status of residents/users, meal management, nutritional education, nutritional education needs, and awareness of nutritional education were obtained through online surveys. A descriptive analysis was conducted to analyze the demographic characteristics, needs, and perceptions of the respondents, and independent t-tests and χ2 tests were performed to analyze and compare the differences between residential and daycare facilities. Results: The majority of residents/users of social welfare facilities for persons with disabilities have developmental disabilities. When educating residents with residents/users of social welfare facilities, 'personal hygiene' was the most necessary topic, followed by 'obesity management' education. Regarding the methods of providing education, face-to-face lectures demonstrated a high demand. They responded that when nutrition education experts provide nutrition education to people with disabilities, they must understand 'the physical characteristics of persons with disabilities' and have the ability to determine appropriate nutrition for such people. The most appropriate nutrition program training would be twice a year, lasting 30 min to 1 h per training session. Conclusions: It will present a direction for operating a nutrition education program for persons with disabilities that meets their needs of social welfare facilities and ultimately contribute to the establishment and activation of nutrition education tailored to welfare facilities for such individuals in Korea.
