探索心理学家和其他帮助专业人员与辅助技术用户合作的方式,以帮助他们充分利用这些设备。在很大程度上,由于世纪的技术进步,残疾人可以独立生活,为社区做出贡献,参加正规学校,并在辅助技术的帮助下从事职业生涯。这种技术演变已经形成了从医疗模式到技术交付社会模式的转变,这种方法既强调用户的身体能力,也强调用户的社区整合。这一变化意味着,该领域的人员不能再把重点放在技术交付上,而必须更进一步,与消费者和社区合作,确保辅助设备得到最佳利用。该卷提供了基于研究的指导,以找到设备和消费者之间的完美匹配,包括人格评估,疼痛的影响,应对技能以及新技术和社会计划的力量的关键信息。它应该对心理学家,研究人员和任何使用或使用辅助技术的人有用。
An exploration of the ways in which psychologists and other helping professionals can collaborate with users of assistive technology to help them get the most out of these devices. Thanks in large part to the 20th century's advances in technology, people with disabilities can live independent lives, contribute to their communities, attend regular schools, and work in professional careers as a result of assistive technology. This technological evolution has formented a shift from a medical model to a social model of technology delivery, an approach that puts as much emphasis on the user's community integration as it does on his or her physical capabilities. This change means that those in the field can no longer focus on the delivery of technology as an end in itself, but must go one step further and partner with consumers and communities to ensure that assistive devices are put to their best possible use. The volume provides research-based guidance on finding the perfect match between device and consumer, including key information on personality assessment, the influence of pain, coping skills, and the power of new technology and social programmes. It should be useful to psychologists, researchers and anyone working with or using assistive technology.
