| dc.description.abstract | A study on “Adaptive behaviour among visually impaired children” was carried out in College Of Community Science, University of Agricultural Sciences Dharwad during 2016-18 in two cities of Karnataka. The sample for the study comprised 160 visually impaired children in the age range of 10-19 years who were attending special schools in Belagavi and Hubballi cities. Adaptive behaviour assessment system-II edition teacher form (Harrisson and Oakland, 2007) was used to assess the adaptive behaviour of visually impaired children, school environment scale (Agarwal and Pandey, 2017) was used to assess the influence of school environment and children’s perception of parenting scale (Pyari and Karla, 2007) was employed to assess influence of their parents parenting on adaptive behaviour. Further socio economic status (SES) scale (Aggarwal et al., 2005) was used to assess socioeconomic status of the children. The results of the study revealed that children with different types of visual impairment differed significantly with respect to all three dimensions such as conceptual, social, practical as well as overall adaptive behaviour where in congenitally blind children were found better in adaptive behaviour as compared to adventitious blind children. Further results indicated that, among child factors studied, age and onset of visual impairment had significant influence on adaptive behaviour. Among parental factors, education and occupation of parents had significant influence on adaptive behaviour similarly among familial factors, size of the family had significant influence on adaptive behaviour of children. Further school environment of children in which the dimensions such as, physical conditions of the school and functions of teacher had significant influence on adaptive behaviour similarly with respect to children’s perception of parenting, democratic and accepting style of parenting had significant influence on adaptive behaviour of visually impaired children. | |
