摘要

大多数残疾研究来自高收入国家，掩盖了残疾概念化的重要文化差异。通过对塞拉利昂居民的199次访谈，我们调查了以下研究问题：（1）残疾人社区成员的经历是什么？（2）残疾人有哪些就业选择或其他资源？（3）社区成员如何看待残疾人？我们使用混合方法进行数据分析，通过量化定性反应，进一步检验参与者的反应是否因城市、年龄或教育水平而异。这项研究的结果深入了解了低收入国家如何理解残疾，并为未来的研究揭示了重要方向。

Perspectives on Disabilities in Sierra Leone

Most disability research originates from high-income countries, masking important cultural variability in how disability is conceptualized. Through 199 interviews with people living in Sierra Leone, we investigated the following research questions: (1) What are the experiences of community members with people with disabilities? (2) What employment options or other resources are available for people with disabilities? (3) How do community members perceive people with disabilities? We used a mixed-method approach to data analysis by quantitizing the qualitative responses to further examine whether participants’ responses differed by urbanicity, age, or level of education. The results of this study provide insight into how disability is understood in a low-income country and reveal important directions for future research.
