The Israeli perspective on educational pathways and future work intentions of young adults with physical disabilities
Education is crucial for long-term outcomes among young adults with physical disabilities (YAPD), yet its impact on vocational intent is underexplored. This study examined whether school placement (mainstream vs. special education) predicts future work intention and whether educational attainment mediates this relationship. 168 Israeli YAPD aged 22–32 completed questionnaires on school placement, education level, and future work intention. Specia…
Does social capital reduce the psychological distress and improve the wellbeing of asylum seekers? Evidence from Israel
Education Makes the Difference
This study focused on the work preferences of young adults with physical disabilities (YAPD) in Israel and the variables that affect those preferences. The theory of planned behavior (TPB) was employed to explain work preferences. We examined direct and indirect links between education and socioeconomic status (SES) in a comprehensive model that tested the mediating role of the TPB and self-assessed health. A cross-sectional study was conducted t…

In this study, we examined the impact of living difficulties on the psychological wellbeing of Darfuri asylum seekers in Israel. Based on the stress process theory, we hypothesized that perceived discrimination mediates the relationship between living difficulties and psychological distress, pos…

Two hundred and thirteen participants completed a survey consisting of six questionnaires testing personal and social issues and perceptions. They were randomly assigned to one of two versions of the survey: optional-fields (N = 104) o…
