Description

Race, Culture and Disability: Rehabilitation Science and Practice is a guide to understanding the research and practical issues related to race, culture and disability in rehabilitation services. Due to an increase in ethnically diverse individuals with disabilities, this text is an extremely timely and relevant contribution for researchers, practitioners, and students. Race, Culture, and Disability brings together the work of leading researchers to explore issues of race, culture, and disability in rehabilitation science and practice. This unique book provides researchers and evidence-based practitioners with scientific resources to answer practical and knowledge-based questions and resolve natural tensions.Topics such as how to make disability determinations with people from diverse cultural backgrounds and non-English language populations and how to address issues of cultural competence and cultural mistrust in service provision are clearly presented. The book is enriched by the perspectives of the scientists who conduct research, the people of color with disabilities who live in this intersection, the practitioners who work with diverse populations, and the students and recent graduates who have learned and want to learn more about this research area.Foreword by Ken Ottenbacher, PhDInstructor Resources: Discussion Questions, Test Bank Features: Key topics including disability identity, psychological testing, community infrastructure, employment issues and more.Includes 15 primary chapters that focus on conceptualizing and understanding the nature of disparities in rehabilitation access, use and outcomes, and present models for reducing these disparities.Three additional chapters offer integrative commentaries on the primary chapters from the perspectives of researchers, practitioners and students.Examples and case studies though out as well as an annotated bibliography and a glossary of key concepts serve to enhance student learning.Instructor Resources: Discussion Questions, Test Bank Culture in Occupational Therapy Physical Therapy Rehabilitation Counseling Rehabilitation Psychology Disability Studies Programs (c) 2010 418 pages
