Rehabilitation Teachers and Orientation and Mobility Instructors: Interprofessional Perceptions.

Ponchillia, P. E.; And Others

Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, v82 n10 p411-14 Dec 1988

A survey of 23 rehabilitation teachers and 23 orientation/mobility instructors determined that subjects in each group had generally positive attitudes toward the other group. However, substantial percentages of each group felt they encroached on the other's professional territory; and both groups felt themselves and the other group to be defensive. (JDD)
