Abstract:
The rehabilitation literature speaks eloquently of the stages of adjustment to disability for individuals with physical disability, but discussions in the literature about adjustment to psychiatric disability are virtually non-existent. The parallels in the fields of physical and psychiatric disability, and the newly accepted emphasis on rehabilitation of people with psychiatric disabilities, suggest that the psychology of adjustment to disability needs to be broadened to include an application to the field of psychiatric rehabilitation.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives Pediatric-acquired disability is often a crossroads in the lives of children and their parents, as they set out to adjust to a new physical impairment. This longitudinal study examined associations between the severity of children’s-acquired disability, their parents’ caregiver burden and adjustment, and parents’ perception of the children’s adjustment over time. Methods Participants were parents and medical staff of 140 children with acquired disability, aged 1–18, hospitalized in pediatric or rehabilitation departments. Data were collected about 1 month after diagnosis (T1) and about 4 months later (T2). Parents completed background information, caregiver burden, child, and parental adjustment questionnaires. Medical staff contributed the disability severity indices. Results The severity of the child’s disability was negatively associated with parents’ adjustment and perception of the child’s adjustment. Caregiver burden was positively associated with the severity of the disability, and negatively with parents’ adjustment and perception of their child’s adjustment, at both time points. Over time, the severity of the disability and caregiver burden decreased, and parents’ adjustment and perception of the child’s adjustment improved. At T2, parents’ and children’s adjustment were strongly associated. Conclusions The findings revealed the relationship between objective severity indices and caregiver burden. They suggest that parents’ adjustment may affect their perception of the child’s adjustment to disability, and emphasize the role of parental perceptions over time. Therefore, parents who are less likely to adjust effectively should be identified early on to facilitate professional intervention.

Abstract:
Every disability results in array of reactions ranging from negative affectivity to successful acceptance of disability among mobility impaired people. Previous studies suggest that educational level and occupation are potential variables affecting adjustment to disability but there is a lack of research analysing how these variables are related to individual’s reactions to disability. The aim of the study was to assess the importance of educational level and occupation to adjustment to disability among mobility impaired people. The study sample included 275 mobility impaired individuals, aged between 18 and 79. Their adjustment to disability was assessed using two questionnaires: 1) Reactions to Impairment and Disability Inventory (Livneh & Antonak, 1990), measuring six emotional reactions to disability: denial, depression, internalized anger, externalized hostility, acknowledgement and adjustment; 2) Acceptance of disability scale (Linkowski, 1971). The results revealed that individuals with higher educational level reported less internalized anger and externalized hostility compared to individuals with lower educational level. In addition, employed individuals expressed less depression and internalized anger and greater adjustment than unemployed individuals. Individuals who were students at the time reported less depression and greater denial, acknowledgement and adjustment to disability compared to those who were unemployed. Students also perceived greater externalized hostility than employed individuals. The results of linear regression indicated that employment and student status but not disability related variables significantly explained the variance of acceptance of disability.

Abstract:
ObjectivesPeople with intellectual disability are vulnerable in terms of health service provision due to increased comorbidity, higher dependency and cognitive impairment. This review explored the literature to ascertain what reasonable adjustments are evident in acute care to support people with intellectual disability, ensuring they have fair access and utilisation of health services.DesignScoping review.SettingAcute care settings.MethodsFive databases were systematically searched to identify studies that reported on the implementation of reasonable adjustments. Authors worked in pairs to screen studies for inclusion, data were extracted and charted and findings were synthesised according to content and themes.ResultsOf the 7770 records identified, six studies were included in the review. The volume of evidence was influenced by specific inclusion criteria, and only papers that reported on the actual implementation of a reasonable adjustment within an acute care setting were included. Many papers reported on the concept of reasonable adjustment; however, few identified its applications in practice.ConclusionsThe scoping review highlights a lack of research on the practice and implementation of reasonable adjustments within acute care settings. There is a need for increased support, education and the provision of intellectual disability specialists across acute care settings.

Abstract:
This study was designed to identify patterns of social-emotional subgroups among students with learning disabilities. The sample consisted of 122 students from 12 self-contained classes for students with learning disabilities situated in regular schools in Israel. Through cluster analysis using measures of loneliness and externalizing and internalizing behavioral maladjustment, four subgroups of students were identified: two non-lonely groups—one behaviorally adjusted and the other with externalizing maladjustment; and two highly lonely groups—one with high externalizing maladjustment, the other with high internalizing maladjustment. Internal validation through MANCOVA analysis revealed significant differences between subgroups on the three classification criteria. As external validation of the classification, significant intergroup differences were also found on teacher- and student-rated social skills and peer acceptance ratings. Case studies demonstrated subgroup patterns, individual differences, and the personal meaning attributed to loneliness and social relations.

Abstract:
This article considers the impact of the reasonable adjustments duty imposed upon employers in section 4A of the Disability Discrimination Act (1995) where a provision, criterion, practice, or physical feature of the premises of the employer places the disabled person at a substantial disadvantage in comparison with persons who are not disabled. It considers that while the duty to make reasonable adjustments has contributed to the rising rates of employment among disabled people, an examination of the Employment Tribunal and EAT Statistics (GB) conversely reveals that there has been a steady increase in cases of disability discrimination in recent years. It is argued that the complexity of section 4A and the ensuing case law have contributed to the rising tide of cases in this field and is a trend which is likely to continue for the foreseeable future.

Abstract:
Research has suggested that successful adaptation to multiple sclerosis (MS) and its psychological sequelae is affected by a variety of factors, but many questions remain unanswered. This study examined the extent to which certain factors contribute to successful psychosocial adjustment. Subjects were 100 MS outpatients from several MS centers and neurology clinics in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Analysis showed that the following variables contributed significantly to psychosocial adjustment: disease status (i.e., remission versus exacerbation), medication, cognitive disability, and perceived uncertainty. Coping style, social support, and perceived level of physical disability did not contribute significantly to adjustment. The findings suggest that efforts should be made to reduce patients' perceptions of uncertainty regarding their MS and that cognitive functioning be assessed and appropriately accommodated in treatment.

As social beings, adolescent with physical disability are required to interact with their social environment to fulfillment and achieve inner tranquility with its surroundings. Limitations in adolescent with physical disability often make them feel inferior, especially if the response in the environment does not accept their physical condition, it will causes psychological problems and make adolescent with physical disability tend to withdraw from social environment. Adolescent attachment to the mother is predicted to increase self-esteem and become resilience in adolescent with physical disability. The purpose of this study to determine the relationship of attachment to the mother and adjustment in adolescent with physical disability. This research is a correlational quantitative research with sample of 56 adolescent with physical disability aged 12-21 years old. Methods of data collection using total sampling technique with adolescent attachment scale to mother and adjustment and analyzed using product moment pearson correlation. This study shows (r = 0.815, p = 0,000). Thus, it can be concluded that there is a significant positive relationship between attachment to the mother and adjustment in adolescent with physical disability.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine if differences existed in acceptance of disability scores between individuals with internal locus of control and external locus of control orientations. Ninety-seven out of 200 randomly-chosen participants with disabilities from a southern California community college completed the Reactions to Impairment and Disability Inventory (RIDI), Rotter's I-E Locus of Control Scale, and a demographic profile sheet. Acceptance of disability was defined as both acknowledgment and adjustment to a disability. Adjustment scores were found to be higher among those with an internal locus of control orientation but only among participants with mental/psychiatric disabilities. Also, differences in adjustment scores were found to be influenced by the domain of locus of control items. Implications for theory and research are briefly suggested.

Abstract:
Introduction: Population-based disability prevalence estimates are limited for New York City (NYC). We examined the associa­tion of several health and health-related measures with disability among NYC resi­dents aged 20-64 years.Methods: We used information from 1,314 adults who participated in the 2013-2014 NYC Health and Nutrition Examination Sur­vey (HANES). We categorized survey partici­pants as having a disability if they reported a physical, mental, and/or emotional problem preventing work or if they reported difficulty walking without special equipment because of a health problem. We used log-binomial regression to quantify the association of each exposure with disability before and after adjustment for select covariates.Results: Overall, 12.4% of the study’s NYC residents aged 20-64 years had a disabil­ity. After adjustment, disability prevalence was significantly greater among those who reported having unmet health care needs (prevalence ratio [PR] = 1.75, 95% CI: 1.18-2.57) and those who reported fair/ poor general health (PR = 2.33, 95% CI: 1.68-3.24). The probability of disability was greater among NYC residents with arthritis (PR = 2.66, 95% CI: 1.85-3.98) and hy­pertension (PR = 1.48, 95% CI: 1.04-2.11) when compared with those without these conditions. Disability was also associated with depression (PR = 2.96, 95% CI: 2.06- 4.25), anxiety (PR = 2.89, 95% CI: 2.15- 3.88), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PR = 2.55, 95% CI: 1.66-3.91). Disability, however, was not associated with diabetes.Conclusion: Disability is more prevalent among those with unmet health care needs, fair/poor general health, arthritis, hyperten­sion, depression, anxiety, and PTSD in these NYC residents, aged 20-64 years. These findings have implications for NYC’s strate­gic planning initiatives, which can be better targeted to groups disproportionately affect­ed by disability.Ethn Dis. 2021;31(3):445- 452; doi:10.18865/ed.31.3.445

Abstract:
We examined the transition experiences and adjustment to retirement among 18 athletes with disabilities. Adopting a grounded theory approach, we interviewed athletes using a semistructured format based on Schlossberg’s (1981, 1984) transition model. Three basic questions were asked regarding the competitive period, events surrounding the retirement decision, and adjustment to retirement. Data were analyzed by an iterative process and a model was developed. Sport was a highly valued part of the lives of athletes; personal commitment to sport was evident and often taken to extremes including overtraining and ignoring medical advice. Transition from sport was an emotional experience for athletes, and difficulties were associated with voluntary versus involuntary retirement and readiness or lack of readiness for retirement. Coping with retirement appeared to be facilitated by readiness and having other job and family interests outside of sport. Many athletes expressed concern regarding chronic injuries and aging with a disability. We suggest that the Schlossberg model is a useful framework for examining athlete transition and adjustment to retirement.

Abstract:
AbstractThe anticipatory reasonable adjustment duty, introduced by the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and now found in the Equality Act 2010, has been hailed as an innovative and proactive tool for embedding disability equality in services and public functions. Despite important successes, the duty has had a surprisingly low profile in academic scholarship and has struggled to fulfil its practical potential. We seek to understand how this has happened, identifying a range of factors that may operate as blockages to the success of the duty. Whilst these factors are interrelated, we group them under three main headings – visibility, uncertainty and enforcement. We reflect critically on whether, and if so how, relevant blockages can be tackled to enable the duty to embed disability equality more effectively within services and public functions and whether new supplementary measures (particularly concerning accessibility) are also needed.

Abstract:
The relationship between facial neuromotor system impairment, disability, and psychological adjustment is not well understood. This study was designed to explore the relation between impairment and disability and the impact of psychological adjustment on the relation for individuals with disorders of the facial neuromotor system. We studied outpatients ( n = 48; mean age, 49.0; SD = 16.3; range, 18 to 84 years) with a facial neuromotor disorder and acute or chronic facial paralysis. Measures of impairment (Facial Motion Assay, House-Brackmann scale, and Facial Grading System), disability (Facial Disability Index, physical and social well-being subscales), and psychological adjustment (Beck Anxiety Inventory, Beck Depression Inventory) were administered. Bivariate correlations between impairment and disability measures indicated impairment was positively correlated with physical and social disability (r = 0.44, p < 0.01; r = 0.39, p < 0.05, respectively). Stepwise regression analysis to predict disability indicated physical disability was predicted by impairment and the interaction of impairment and psychological distress (R 2 = 0.425; F = 12.57; df = 2, 34; p = 0.002). Psychological distress, and not impairment and the interaction of impairment and distress, was the single predictor of social disability (R 2 = 0.274; F = 13.23; df = 1, 35; p = 0.001). Psychological distress was a moderator of the relation between impairment and physical disability and a mediator of the relation between impairment and social disability for individuals with facial neuromotor disorders. Assessment and interventions targeted for psychological distress in addition to interventions targeted for impairments appear warranted to effectively reduce the disability associated with facial neuromotor disorders.

Abstract:
This article uses the concepts of risk and resiliency to frame our understanding of how having a learning disability affects nonacademic outcomes such as emotional adjustment, family functioning, adolescent problems of school dropout, substance abuse and juvenile delinquency, and adult adaptation. The presence of a learning disability is viewed as a risk factor that, in and of itself, does not predict positive or negative outcomes. Rather, other risk and protective factors, as highlighted in the literature, interact with the presence of a learning disability to facilitate or impede adjustment. These risk and protective factors may be internal characteristics of the individual or external characteristics of the family, school and community environments. Implications for the development of proactive interventions and areas for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
For many, disability may ignite feelings of grief, sadness, loss, and/or emotional pain. Others discover they harbor negative or self-critical thoughts and beliefs (i.e., blame) which compounds and complicates the personal coping process. Adjustment to disability models exist to help persons with disabilities and professionals understand or explain their negative thoughts, feelings, and experiences; yet, they do not overtly discuss or address emerging skills and approaches such as compassion and selfcompassion as a part of the disability adjustment process. In an effort to change this trend, an eclectic theoretical model which infuses self-compassion and compassion-based techniques has been developed. Rehabilitation counselors are provided with an explanation of the ways existing research on compassion and self-compassion can be used to strengthen their application to the adjustment needs of persons with disabilities. Information about how to incorporate compassion and self-compassion into the rehabilitation counseling adjustment process and recommendations are also provided.

Abstract:
This paper describes the initial steps toward the construction of an experimental, multidimensional inventory to - measure reactions to physical disability. The Relations to Impairment and Disability Inventory (RIDI) was developed to provide information on eight patterns of psychosocial reactions to disability, namely: shock, anxiety, denial, depression, internalized anger, externalized hostility, acknowledgement, and adjustment. Data are presented on initial psychometric analyses of the inventory. Analyses of the eight scales supported their homogeneity and relative independence, and the inventory's construct validity was partially documented. A moderately high degree of relationship was found between the Acknowledgement and Adjustment scales and the Acceptance of Disability (AD) scale (Linkowski, 1971), providing partial support of the inventory's criterion-related validity.

Abstract:
IntroductionResearch evidenced the association of pain coping strategies with short-term and long-term adjustments to chronic pain. Yet, previous studies mainly assessed the frequency of coping strategies when pain occurs whilst no data is available on one's flexibility/rigidity in using different pain coping strategies, i.e., pain coping variability, in dealing with different situations.ObjectivesThis study aimed to examine the multivariate association between pain coping variability and committed action in predicting concurrent pain-related disability. Specifically, we examined the independent effects of pain coping variability and committed action in predicting concurrent pain-related disability in a sample of Chinese patients with chronic pain.MethodsChronic pain patients (n = 287) completed a test battery assessing pain intensity/disability, pain coping strategies and variability, committed action, and pain catastrophizing. Multiple regression modeling compared the association of individual pain coping strategies and pain coping variability with disability (Models 1–2), and examined the independent effects of committed action and pain coping variability on disability (Model 3).ResultsOf the 8 coping strategies assessed, only guarding (std β = 0.17) was emerged as significant independent predictor of disability (Model 1). Pain coping variability (std β = −0.10) was associated with disability after controlling for guarding and other covariates (Model 2) and was emerged as independent predictor of disability (Model 3: std β = −0.11) (all P < 0.05) (Tables 1 and 2).ConclusionsOur data offers preliminary support for the multivariate association between pain coping variability and committed action in predicting concurrent pain-related disability, which supplements the existing pain coping data that are largely based on assessing frequency of coping.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:
Abstract Cross-lagged panel designs were used to examine longitudinal and potential (bi)directional relationships between primary caregiver reported sibling relationship quality and the behaviors of children with intellectual disability (n = 297) and their closest in age siblings. The behavioral and emotional problems of the child with intellectual disability positively predicted sibling conflict over time. When accounting for control variables, this relationship was no longer present. Sibling warmth positively predicted the prosocial behaviors of the child with intellectual disability over time. When accounting for control variables, both sibling warmth and sibling conflict positively predicted the prosocial behaviors of the child with intellectual disability over time. Future research directions and clinical implications are discussed.

Abstract:
To examine the associations of heart failure (HF) with five domains of disability while controlling for covariates. Subjects with HF and aged ≥ 50 years were selected from the 1999 to 2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data. Five domains of disability were measured with 19 physical tasks. Logistic regression with adjustment for covariates was conducted. The prevalence of HF in 27,185 adults aged ≥ 50 years was 6.37%. After controlling for demographics and smoking, logistic regression showed that HF was associated with 2.8 to 3.4 times increased odds of all domains of disability compared to adults without HF, but with additional adjustments of covariates, the association was attenuated indicating the mediating effects of covariates. The future study may examine the mediating effects of covariates when intervening difficulties with lower extremity mobility and activities of daily living while considering in community-dwelling older adults with HF.

Abstract:
The increasing number of people with disabilities in Indonesia who are at work and still perceived as a burden on companies affect disability to work. This study focuses on participant who has physical disabilities because people with physical disability are the second most in Indonesia and their conditions of disability that can be seen directly, and cause psychological problems. As individuals, people with physical disabilities need to live independently, one of the ways to fulfill it by working. Physical disabilities will be in new environments and new situations. This requires adjustment so that eventually they can work productively. This research is using qualitative method using one on one interview. Three participants have attended training in BBRVBD Cibinong. This study use stage passed and the factors that influence their adjustment in the workplace. The results of this study indicate that the three participants experienced an emerging stage of stress at the beginning of work, defense mechanism, resolving problems, and after eight to ten months in the workplace, they are already in the adjustment stage. Three participants were influenced by five adjustment factors from Schneiders (1964). There are other factors that affect their adjustment, namely the perspective that physical disabilities has equal rights and opportunities at work. The desire to be independent, and prove to others who have to insult their physical condition.

Abstract:
This study addresses the relationship of disability with principal lifetime occupation in the elderly. Daily function, cognitive, and physical health variables were assessed in an Italian population of 524 community-dwelling elders aged seventy and over. Farmers had 1.4 (95% C.I.: 0.6 to 2.2) instrumental daily functions lost higher than white-collar workers. Adjustment for age, education, and financial dissatisfaction with multiple linear regression analysis decreased the difference to a still significant figure of 0.9 (95% C.I.: 0.1 to 1.7). On the contrary, adjustment only for cognitive status resulted in complete disappearance of the association [0.2 functions lost (95% C.I.: −0.5 to 0.9)]. The data indicate that greater disability in the most disadvantaged occupational groups may be due to poorer cognition.

Abstract:
Chronic childhood illness, disability, and psychosocial problems are receiving major attention in current pediatric care. Much of the evidence associating chronic physical problems and mental health and adjustment problems has come from clinic-based studies and is often inconsistent in its conclusions. This paper reports the findings of the Ontario Child Health Study, an epidemiologic survey of 3,294 children 4 to 16 years of age in the general community, concerning the relationship of psychiatric disorders and social adjustment problems among children with chronic illness, medical conditions, and long-term disability in contrast to children free of chronic physical health problems. Age- and sex-adjusted risks for psychiatric disorders and social problems, compared with those for healthy peers, were calculated: children with both chronic illness and associated disability were at greater than threefold risk for psychiatric disorders and considerable risk for social adjustment problems. Children with chronic medical conditions, but no disability, were at considerably less risk: about a twofold increase in psychiatric disorders but little increased risk for social adjustment problems was observed. A relative underuse of specialized mental health services by children who might benefit supports the opinion that all physicians in the community who care for children with chronic health problems should become skilled in the recognition of existing or incipient mental health and social problems and familiar with preventive and treatment approaches that may lessen the excessive burden of psychosocial problems among those with chronic ill-health.

Abstract:
SummaryThis paper explores the inter-relationships between impairment and disability in a sample of 119 teenagers in relation to their psychological adjustment and quality of social life. Poor psychological adjustment and extreme social isolation are associated not so much with individual functional limitations as with particular configurations of impairments and disabilities. It seems that social handicap is not a direct consequence of any impairment or disability but arises generally from severe functional loss and is shaped by dependency on others, restricted choices, physical barriers and adverse reactions of others.

Abstract:
Changes in depression, disability, body concept, and severity of head deviation were examined in a sample of 67 patients with idiopathic torticollis, who were reassessed 2 years after taking part in an initial study (before the use of botulinum toxin injections). Over the follow-up period, torticollis was unchanged in 41·8%, had improved in 26·9% and deteriorated in 31·3% of cases. The overall levels of depression, disability, and body concept across the two occasions did not change. Changes in the clinical severity of torticollis over the follow-up period had a significant effect on psychological adjustment. Those whose torticollis improved were less depressed and disabled and a had a more positive body concept compared to the patients whose torticollis had worsened. Measures of illness severity had stronger associations with measures of psychological adjustment at follow-up than at the time of initial study. Longer duration of torticollis was associated with larger increases in depression and disability during the 2 years of follow-up. The results suggest that the experience of depression, disability, and negative body concept in a proportion of torticollis sufferers is a reaction to the neurological illness. A minority of the patients who remain chronically depressed are primary candidates for therapeutic intervention aiming at improving their adjustment to the illness.
