Engaging the Business/Industrial Sector in Accessibility Research
This article examines challenges of engaging the business/industry sector in research on the use of information technology to enhance accessibility for people with disabilities in two areas of common interest—to employment and to public and retail services. The data presented arise from the joint effort of two research teams who independently encountered challenges in engaging private sector firms in their respective projects. Using a case study …

Empirical Dimensions of Discrimination against Disabled People
Where at one time professionals viewed disability as a condition inherent in a person, there now is widespread acceptance that, in large measure, disability is a social construct with roots in societal attitudes. Specifically, the case has been made by disabled people that they are the victims of discrimination. This paper reviews some of the empirical evidence of discriminatory practices in the areas of: access to education; meaningful participa…
Personal Factors in Human Learning
An experiment was conducted to ascertain whether varying induced strategies of recall leads to differing rates of learning. The two chosen strategies (Formula and Graphic) were found to affect markedly the speed of learning a binary task administered in a group setting with the former enhancing and the latter somewhat retarding such learning. Similar results were obtained for both "fast" and "slow" learners (although performance of "fast" learner…
Personal Factors in Human Learning
This study confirmed an earlier finding that two strategies, termed formula and graphic, markedly affected the speed of learning a binary task, with the former being much the superior. Both “fast” and “slow” learners were able to utilize these strategies; however, “fast” learners were superior throughout, both in terms of number of trials to criterion and total amount of time taken to learn the tasks. Evidence also was obtained suggesting that th…
