| description | Dealing with the disability is linked to ideological specifications, signified by the society. In this way, analyzing the manner how distinct political-economical contexts, Cuba and Brazil, position concerning this issue is the core of this study. The first, represented by a socialist republic with an inner organization centered in the Marxist-Leninist and communist model, whereas the latter is featured by the capitalist model, in a productivity-focused perspective. Objective of this research is to identify the concepts of disability in both countries and investigate the conceptions of disability, using the Disability Conception Scale (DCS) in two groups of college students, comparing the discoveries. 272 Cuban students and 344 Brazilian ones participated in this study. Analysis identified similar descriptive data between the samples. Through median analysis, it is highlighted that, in Brazil, there are a tendency to agree with utterances related to a historical-cultural interpretation of disability, followed by a social interpretation. In Cuba, the tendency was an agreement with utterances which conceive disability as a social phenomenon, followed by the biological and historical-cultural interpretations. Both contexts indicated low agreement with utterances which conceive the disability as a metaphysical phenomenon. Highlighting conceptions of college students about disability is interesting because it brings to the scientific debate how forthcoming professionals position themselves in face of this social group and can indicate how universities have worked issues related of this group. |

O trato com o fenômeno deficiência está atrelado às especificidades ideológicas, significadas pela sociedade. Nessa direção, analisar como contextos político-econômicos bem distintos, Cuba e Brasil, se posicionam a respeito se configurou objeto central deste estudo. O primeiro representado por uma república socialista, com um sistema de organização interna centralizado no modelo marxista-leninista comunista, e o segundo caracterizado pelo modo sistema capitalista, numa perspectiva produtivista. O objetivo do estudo foi identificar levantar os conceitos de deficiências nos dois países e investigar as concepções de deficiência, utilizando a Escala de Concepção de Deficiência – ECD, em dois grupos de universitários, comparando os achados. Participaram do estudo 272 universitários cubanos e 344 brasileiros. As análises dos dados identificaram dados descritivos semelhantes entre as amostras. Pela análise das medianas, evidencia-se que no Brasil há uma tendência de concordar com enunciados que relacionados a uma interpretação histórico-cultural da deficiência, seguida da social. Em Cuba, a tendência foi acordar com enunciados que concebem a deficiência como um fenômeno social, seguida igualmente da interpretação biológica e histórico-cultural. Ambos contextos indicaram baixa concordância com enunciados que implicam em conceber a deficiência como um fenômeno metafísico. Destacar concepções de universitários sobre a deficiência é interessante na medida que traz para o debate científico como futuros profissionais se posicionam diante desse grupo social e ainda pode indicar como a universidade tem trabalho questões referentes a esse grupo social. 2018-04-24 2022-03-21T17:58:53Z 2022-03-21T17:58:53Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/dialogoseperspectivas/article/view/8337 10.36311/2358-8845.2018.v5n1.08.p95 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/72902 por https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/dialogoseperspectivas/article/view/8337/5344 Copyright (c) 2018 REVISTA DIÁLOGOS E PERSPECTIVAS EM EDUCAÇÃO ESPECIAL application/pdf Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências REVISTA DIÁLOGOS E PERSPECTIVAS EM EDUCAÇÃO ESPECIAL; v. 5 n. 1 (2018); 95-110 2358-8845 |
