Abstract

The article discusses the findings of a survey of physicians in outpatient practices in the U.S. regarding their perceptions of people with disabilities, more than 30 years after the passage of the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA). Topics covered include the belief by the majority that people with disabilities have worse quality of life than those without, and findings which suggest that a large number of physicians might hold biased or stigmatized perceptions of people with disability.
