This is true even as previous survey
research studies on public attitudes
report high rates of acceptance and
positive ratings of satisfaction regarding
workers with disabilities, though quasiexperimental and qualitative research
contradict these findings. The
connection between the general public’s
attitudes toward people with disabilities
and their employment prospects as well
as the impact of direct work contact
with people with disabilities has not
been explored with a large sample
representative of the general population.
More importantly, previous research on
public attitudes toward people with
disabilities (Harris Polls, 2003, 1998;
Kaiser Family Foundation, 2004;
Siperstein et al., 2005) has used one or
two-dimensional models of attitudinal
measurement. This is a significant
disadvantage to the development of
knowledge in this area, especially with
regard to the behavioral component of
attitudes, which is not included in
previous studies. Without a better
understanding of the causal factors that
compel an individual to act out her/his
thoughts and emotions, the value of
research on public attitudes toward
people with disabilities is significantly
diminished.
ODEP strongly believes that the
research on public attitudes toward
people with disabilities needs a strategic
and scientifically based approach that
rigorously collects and aggregates data
from a larger sample of the American
public, a more comprehensive approach
to attitude measurement, and a
multivariate predictive analytical
approach to the analysis of findings.
Therefore, the proposed 2009 survey is
designed to meet those needs, as
follows: The survey will draw a sample
n = 1,600, which is roughly double the
size of the sample of the 2005 National
Survey of Consumer Attitudes; It will
use a multidimensional validated scale
of attitudes toward disabled people that
has been tested in a multitude of
published works since the mid-1990s; It
will apply analytical methods that
develop causal and associative
explanations for both attitude change
and development and the behavior of
individuals.
Signed at Washington, DC this January 11,
2010.

Assistant Secretary.
