Abstract

This study aimed to identify the attitudes of pre- service teachers toward self-determination skills for people with sensory disabilities. To achieve the aims of study, a questionnaire of the attitudes towards self- determination skills was used to collect data from (88) pre- service female teachers from Mu'tah University in Jordan. The results indicated that the attitudes were positive. And there are no statistically significant differences in the attitudes of pre-service teachers towards self-determination skills for people with sensory disabilities due to Academic year and Previous experience in dealing with people with disabilities. And there are statistically significant differences in the attitudes due to the presence of a disability in the individual's family.
