True |or |False: |There |are |many |forms |of |disabilities |that |are |not |obvious |to |an |observer. |- |
CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-True



Medical |Model |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Disability |is |viewed |as |a |problem |that |is |caused |by |
medically-diagnosed |genetic |disorders, |disease, |trauma, |or |other |health |conditions. |Disability |
is |treated |as |a |biological |problem |that |diminishes |quality |of |life |and |needs |to |be |treated |with |
professional |medical |care.



The |legal |definition |of |disabilities |often |relies |on |the |assumptions |of |the |medical |model.

, Strengths |of |the |Medical |Model |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Explicitly |acknowledges |that |there |is |
a |biological |condition |that |places |an |individual |at |a |disadvantage |compared |to |the |majority |of |
the |population.



A |clearly-defined |set |of |biological |criteria |helps |medical |professionals |make |important |
treatment |decisions |and |the |government |to |decide |who |gets |assistance.



Weaknesses |of |the |Medical |Model |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Frequently |criticized |by |disability |
advocates.



- |Overlooks |the |impact |of |the |design |decisions |in |our |social |environment

- |Labels |and |stigmatizes |the |person |as |different |and |"less |than" |the |rest |of |the |population

- |People |who |do |not |fit |within |the |clearly-defined |definitions |may |be |denied |benefits |that |
they |need

- |Adds |a |level |of |inconvenient |bureaucracy |by |having |to |"prove" |your |disability |repeatedly



Social |Model |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-The |social |model |points |out |that |society |creates |
disabling |conditions. |To |a |large |extent, |"disability" |is |an |avoidable |condition |caused |by |poor |
design.



The |social |model |doesn't |deny |that |there |is |a |biological |or |medical |component |to |disability. |It |
merely |points |out |that |more |inclusive |designs |can |remove |the |barriers |that |people |with |
disabilities |face |in |their |everyday |lives.



Strengths |of |the |Social |Model |- |CORRECT |ANSWER✔✔-Empowers |people |with |disabilities |by |
removing |the |stigma |often |associated |with |physical |impairments.



Empowers |designers |of |physical |and |virtual |environments |to |think |broadly |about |usability |for |
all |kinds |of |humans. |Inclusive |designs |sometimes |require |more |creative |thinking, |but |this |can |
