Abstract

The purpose of this study was to survey the perceptions and attitudes of university students towards the disabled. The subject's were 794 students from "D" University. The collected data was analyzed using a t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheff$\acute{e}$ Test. For the disabled daily life and care-givers, many students considered that the disabled needed to be cared for by the government or public organizations. The students also considered that there would be no adverse effects on education if there was a special school in their village. They collected information related to the disabled from mass communication. They came up with government support being the most effective way of improving the awareness of the disabled. The specific positive attitudes about the disabled were as follows: emotional, behavioral, cognitive, and interchange. The attitudes for the disabled people showed a difference according to gender and grade. The results of the study showed that the perception and attitudes can be established based on the information collected.

본 연구는 대학생의 장애인에 대한 전반적인 인식과 태도를 알아보기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구대상은 D대학에 재학 중인 대학생으로 학년을 고려하여 같은 비율로 목적유층표집을 실시한 794명이며, 수집된 자료는 t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheff$\acute{e}$ test로 분석하였다. 연구결과 장애인은 복지 생활시설에서 생활하는 사람이 많을 것이며, 국가나 지역사회가 돌봄의 주체가 되고, 장애의 정도나 종류에 따른 특수학교나 일반학교에서 공부하는 것이 좋을 것으로, 거주지역내 특수학교 설치가 교육에 나쁜 영향을 미치지 않을 것으로 인식하는 대학생이 많았다. 정보수집 경로는 매스컴을 통해서, 인식개선은 정부차원에서 적극적으로 장애인을 지원하는 방안이 많은 것으로 나타났다. 대학생의 영역별 장애인에 대한 긍정적 태도는 감정적 행동적 인지적 교류적 태도 순으로 나타났다. 일반적 특성에 따른 장애인에 대한 태도는 전공계열, 성별, 학년에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 대학생의 장애인에 대한 올바른 인식정립과 긍정적 태도를 확립하는 방안 마련에 기초자료가 될 수 있을 것이다.
