Итог:Examining the beliefs concerning the moral and religious development of individuals with mental retardation was the focus of this study. Participants completed a Q sort with a concourse of 45 items reflecting potential opinions. Four dissimilar factors emerged. The most profound identifier of factor A, Hopeful Humanist, is the hopeful nature in which they perceive individuals with mental retardation. Members of factor B, Devout Followers, see themselves as directed by God and willing followers of God. As Special Caregivers the members of factor C make it clear there is a distinct difference between individuals with mental retardation and those who are without disabilities. In factor D, Staunch Copers, the most important belief is a realistic and pragmatic view about the individual with mental disabilities.
