The research objectives of this study were to test a number of hypothesized relationships between the dependent variables, that is, attitudes towards disabled persons and attitude intensity, and certain independent variables, that is, contact, disability, religiosity and demographic variables. While the dependent variables functioned as criterions, it was assumed that the independent variables functioned as correlates or predictors. A set of three research instruments - the Attitudes Toward Disabled Persons Scale, a Personal Questionnaire and a Personal Questionnaire re Handicapped Persons - was completed by each of 101 non-disabled persons and 53 disabled persons in Cape Town, South Africa. 2015-02-11T14:12:44Z 2015-02-11T14:12:44Z 1975 Master Thesis Masters MSocSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12445 eng application/pdf Department of Sociology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
