Using content analysis this study examined Korean people's traditional view on children with disabilities, hoping to contribute to the selection of appropriate picture books for an understanding of disabilities in kindergartens and child care centers. Story book characters with disabilities mainly interacted with their families and village people, had lower positions, did not accomplish their work on their own, and suffered from others' anger and beating. Differences in types of disabilities were that physical disabilities were viewed positively, while mental disabilities were viewed negatively. The former had wider scope of activities and maintained more positive relationships with other characters than the latter; furthermore, the former had higher position than the latter and had cooperative interactions with people without disabilities.

본 연구는 정신장애인이 취업의 전 과정을 통해 어떤 경험을 하게 되며, 어떻게 자신의 역할을 가치화하고 궁극적으로 사회통합과정에 진입해 나가는지 심층적으로 이해하고자 하였다. 특정 현상의 본질적 모습을 참여자들의 삶과 연결하여 보다 생생하고 풍부하게 이해하기 위하여 현상학적 연구방법을 활용하였으며, Colaizzi의 분석방법을 통해 고유경험을 깊이 있게 기술하였다. 정신장애인의 취업경험에 관한 분석과 반성적 고찰을 통해 6가지의 주제묶음을 도출하였다. '좁은 문을 비집고 들어가기', '낯선 무대 위에 올려지기', '빠른 세상 속에 헛돌기', '버텨내기', '평범한 삶에 포개지기', '내 한계를 인정하며 한발 더 내딛기'이다. 참여자는 직업세계의 편견과 차별, 스스로의 기능적 제한을 경험하면서 사회적으로 성장하였고, 이를 통해 내재화된 환자역할에서 벗어나는 힘이 생기고, '장애'보다는 자신의 '능력과 노력'에 초점을 두어 자아를 통합하였다. 참여자들은 취업이 주는 정당한 고통이 자신이 지향하는 삶의 일부로 의미화하고, 한발 더 내딛어 세상에 합류하고자 하는 경험을 하였다. 본 연구는 이러한 연구결과를 통해 정신장애인의 취업지원을 위한 실천적 개입방향을 제시하였다.

This study examines teachers' implementation of strategies to modify the aggressive behavior of students with intellectual disabilities in Saudi Arabia, to determine the obstacles to their real-world execution. In addition, it presents potential approaches to overcome the obstacles to implementing strategies with this group of students. The research employed a qualitative design using semi-structured interviews as a data collection tool and applied a thematic analysis. The study population comprised 35 teachers of students with intellectual disabilities and the study sample numbered six teachers. The interviews were conducted via different methods: three by phone, two face-to face, and one using the Zoom platform. The results revealed inadequate understanding among teachers of intellectual disability and behaviour modification strategies, and this affected their capacity to develop plans that were compatible with the needs of students with intellectual disability. The findings also identified multiple obstacles that impede teachers' implementation of strategies to modify aggressive behaviour among students with intellectual disabilities; the most important being the lack of input from a psychological specialist when developing programs to modify aggressive behaviour. In general, it is apparent that programs for modifying aggressive behaviour are neither structured nor complementary, due to the scarcity of administrators with sufficient knowledge and familiarity with the characteristics and personalities of students with intellectual disabilities. This study presents several recommendations, the most important of which is that teachers of students with intellectual disability should develop themselves through training courses to enable them to deal with these students and create treatment plans that include strategies and clear steps to modify the aggressive behaviour of students with intellectual disabilities. To support teachers, it is also necessary to remove the obstacles facing education centres by providing financial support to create an environment in which they can access the required devices and equipment in their classes.
