One out of five people have or will develop a disability in their lifetime, but we rarely think about society\u2019s<\/p>\n
underlying assumptions regarding this common human experience. This course will explore disability from social<\/p>\n
psychological and disability studies perspectives. We will explore the social construction of disability and its inter-and<\/p>\n
intra-personal rami cations. This course departs from traditional psychology courses that focus on impairments<\/p>\n
within the individual and attempt to normalize people with disabilities. Instead, this class will explore how society\u2019s<\/p>\n
conception of disability is the main source of handicap.<\/p>\n
