This study examined high school attitudes toward persons with physical and mental disabilities using a social distance scale. Results indicated that physical disabilities (e.g., ulcer, stomach disorder, heart disease, visual impairment, hearing impairment, spinal cord injure) were rated as most accepted (excluding HIV/AIDS) and mental disabilities (e.g., chemical dependency, schizophrenia, depression, alcoholism, behavior disorder, mental retardation) were the least accepted. That is, more social distance was placed between the participant and the disability group. These findings were similar to other studies. As diversity awareness continues to drive the counseling arena, it seems vital that attitudes toward disabilities be addressed. Implications of these results as well as techniques to modify student attitudes toward disability are reviewed. (Contains 1 table.)
