Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Some years ago I read the phrase "the spontaneous revulsion to the deformed". The phrase seemed to be both potent and provocative: Was there a spontaneous revulsion to disabilities in children or did such conditions evoke a more compassionate response?’ Originally published in 1978, the problems of the disabled were no longer confined to the medical and educational professionals, but had become the concern of the community as a whole. Using terminology very much of the time, the author shows how attitudes towards different kinds of disability had developed at the time; they varied both regionally and by social class, sometimes calling into question the accepted ‘facts’ about the distribution of a particular condition. Most importantly, the author examines these attitudes together with many other social and psychological factors in relation to their impact on the social behaviour and developing self-image of the disabled child. It becomes clear that the dangers of categorization and the difficulties in overcoming stigma have a profound influence on the education and socialization of disabled children. This book will be of historical interest to students and teachers of psychology, education, social work and rehabilitation; and it will provide insight for parents and all those concerned with the care and development of the disabled child about how far we have come.

Download or read book Children With Handicaps written by Gershon Berkson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychological research on children with mental and physical handicaps began two hundred years ago. Its major development awaited the maturation of psychology as an empirical science and of social movements for child welfare and education. This book is a record of the research accomplished in the 1980s. While at the end of the 19th century, behavioral research on handicapped children could at best be characterized as pioneering; by the beginning of the 1990s, it had become a vigorous activity with scientists producing hundreds of articles a year. The result has been a level of detail in theory and factual support that was not previously available. This volume is written for those who know something about psychology and education, but who are unfamiliar with research on children with handicaps. This might include parents of children with handicaps, upper-level undergraduate and graduate students looking for research topics, and professionals in developmental psychology and the education of normal children who wish to familiarize themselves with the recent developments in the study of deviations in behavioral development.

Download or read book Parents and Young Mentally Handicapped Children written by Helen McConachie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-01-08 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1986, this book reviews research on the role parents play in fostering the early development of children with mental handicaps. Professionals and parents must work together to give such children the chance of living as ordinary lives as possible and here, the author develops a broadly-based conceptual framework for the involvement of parents as teachers of their young handicapped children. McConachie identifies characteristics of parents which seem of particular relevance to the design and success of intervention programmes. Although written in the 1980s, this book discusses topics that are still important today.

Download or read book The Child with a Disability written by David Hall and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1997-01-30 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Child with a Disability covers the diagnosis and care of children with disabilities and the scientific basis of developmental paediatrics. It is also a valuable source of detailed medical data on the numerous varieties of childhood disability. This book is an evolution of the original text by Dr Grace Wood, published in 1976, called The Handicapped Child. That book established itself as a benchmark in paediatrics and has now been revised twice by Professor David Hall. In this latest edition, the title was changed to reflect current usage (ie, disabled vs. handicapped) and Professor Hall has added a new chapter on educational underachievement. The nature of intelligence, developmental psychology, and linguistics and their relevance to clinical work are discussed, and the critical role of communication with parents is emphasised throughout. As a synthesis of basic science and clinical practice, the book presents a logical approach to developmental paediatrics, which will appeal not only to doctors but also to professionals such as educational and clinical psychologists, therapists and social workers.
