Participants: Four hundred eighty-one psychologists who were American Psychological Association members. Measure: A survey that ascertained psychologists' perceptions of access barriers, success factors, and support needs in providing services to clients with disabilities, as well as experiences with bias or sensitivity. Results: Barriers to service provision include funding, accessibility, lack of provider knowledge, limited training in disability issues and services, and lack of sensitivity. Conclusions: Additional training for psychologists in disability issues, legal requirements regarding public accommodations, and disability resources is needed. Psychologists with disabilities may be an important resource.
