Time To Make Up Your Mind: Why Choosing Is Difficult.
Harris, John
British Journal of Learning Disabilities, v31 n1 p3-8 Mar 2003
This article discusses the concept of choice and how our aspirations to promote choice for people with learning disabilities are undermined by conceptual confusion. It then examines environmental influences on choice, including staff behavior and other social influences on choice, and characteristics of service users and their influences on choice.
