| Description | This chapter analyzes the context of inclusive processes in the Czech Republic through attitudes of the general public towards people with disabilities. In our research, carried out in December 2011, we administered an adapted version of Bogardus scale of social distance to a representative sample of Czech population aged 15 and more. The questions were aimed to provide information about three types of disabilities (Physical, Intellectual and Sensory). The analysis looked closely at the level of acceptance in educational settings and also at focus on generational comparison. Data showed more positive and accepting attitudes in younger and more educated groups of population. |
