Physically disabled persons can have sleep problems, which affects their mental health more than those in non-disabled people. However, there are few studies on the relationship between sleep duration and mental health targeting physically disabled people in South Korea, and existing studies on the disabled have mostly used data collected from convenience rather than nationally representative samples, limiting the generalization of the results. This study used data from the second wave of the Panel Survey of Employment for the Disabled (PSED, 2016–2018, 1st–3rd year). Participants included 1851 physically disabled individuals. The Chi-square test and generalized estimating equation (GEE) were used and the Akaike information criterion (AIC) value and the AIC log Bayes factor approximation were used to select sleep trajectories. This is the first study to elucidate multiple sleep trajectories in physically disabled people in Korea, and the relationship between sleep duration trajectories and self-rated depressive symptoms. People with physical disabilities who sleep more than 9 h have the highest risk of depression and need more intensive management as a priority intervention.

The advent of the small computer has provided a wide range of possibilities for offering new tools in the education of the severely physically disabled. The flexibility of the computer allows the limited motor skills of the disabled child to be amplified to expand that child's interaction with the world. This paper examines the use of the microcomputer in providing communication and environmental control in the personal lives of disabled individuals.

Persons with physical disabilities recorded under the auspices of the "Rumah Kasih Sayang" institution are 12 people. Ideally, the practice of worship should be carried out easily by everyone, but in fact there are still many people with disabilities who experience difficulties in implementing it, not even a few of them have left worship because of low religious-related understanding and lack of motivation from the community to include persons with disabilities. carry out daily worship obligations. These problems are experienced by people with disabilities, especially physically disabled in the "Rumah Kasih Sayang" in Krebet village. People with disabilities by the community are considered as groups who are no longer obliged to worship, they are sufficiently fostered with a variety of skills obtained from the institution, empowered by breeding goats from compensation without even being physically invited to pray together in the mosque or prayer room. Religious inclusiveness needs to be built between the community and the physically disabled, the community must be given an understanding that as long as the disabled person meets the taklif provisions, there is no privilege that disqualifies the obligation of worship for the disabled. The research questions are: 1) What are the implications of the fiqh guidance of worship for the disabled in the "Rumah Kasih Sayang" Krebet Jambon Village? 2) What are the implications of fiqh material for worship for the people of Krebet Jambon Village ?. To answer the formulation of the problem, the researcher used a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach. The results of this study are: 1) Deaf people can practice well the procedures of daily worship in accordance with the fiqh hospitality of disabled people while being able to carry out the obligation to worship together with the surrounding community. 2) People get new insights about fiqh worship for people with disabilities, changing their negative stigma towards disabled people and leading to the realization of an inclusive religious culture in Krebet Jambon Ponorogo Village.

The purpose of this study was to determine if identification and affinity for a storybook hero are functions of physical status. The similar groups (one disabled) aged 4 to 7 were randomly assigned to one of two storybook treatments telling of two boys' friendship. One version depicted both boys as nondisabled (control); the other depicted one boy as disabled (experimental). Questions were asked to determine whether the hero's disability affected the subjects' identification with or choice of him as a friend. Significant differences appeared between responses of two groups and again when sex was isolated as a variable. Disabled males identified less willingly with the disabled hero than did disabled females and preferred friendship of the nondisabled hero. Nondisabled males identified with the nondisabled hero but preferred friendship of the disabled hero while nondisabled females rejected him as a friend

455 physically disabled persons were surveyed regarding their attitudes toward moving to housing facilities designed to give more independence to the disabled. While the majority were satisfied with their present living arrangements, one-third (134) of the total group expressed a desire to move to such a facility. Those willing to move were younger, had more severe disabilities and were more dependent upon others for daily needs. They were more often city dwellers who had lived in their present homes for a shorter period of time than those not willing to move.

This paper reviews the literature on attitudes toward the disabled as manifested by both the disabled and the nondisabled, and describes the three most commonly used methods of effecting attitude change. The literature review provides a basis for a proposed implication for counseling disabled persons. The counseling process is examined in terms of the perception of self as the key variable, how this variable is influenced by the attitudes disabled individuals hold of themselves, and the interaction of this with the attitudes that others hold towards them.

This paper tries to overcome the shortcomings of the recent technology that fails to enhance the communication between physically disabled people by designing an assistive device. This device uses a GSM modem with a SIM card and no smartphones are needed which makes the device affordable. Here, the sender sends the message to the phone number of the disabled person and he/she receives the SMS that gets converted to text and voice message and vibrations to Braille pad using a microcontroller which is easily readable by the disabled person.
