Description

Various models of disability aim at providing a description and a conceptual framework for explaining what disability is and how disabled people experience disability. These models had also provided information and facts through time, so society to develop those laws and regulations to positively affect the lives of disabled people. Although a range of models attempted to provide an understanding of disabilities, the prevailing and most commonly used and applied models are the medical, the social model, and the biopsychosocial model of disability. The presented theoretical framework aims at incorporating knowledge and findings on the medical model, the social model, and the biopsychosocial model of disability thus to allow readers to conceptualize in the context of disability.
