Self-Advocacy Instruction to Teach High School Seniors with Mild Disabilities to Access Accommodations in College
Holzberg, Debra G.; Test, David W.; Rusher, Dana E.
Remedial and Special Education, v40 n3 p166-176 Jun 2019
For students with high-incidence disabilities, the transition from secondary to postsecondary educational settings poses the additional challenge of acquiring accommodations. Self-advocacy interventions have been identified as important skills for students with disabilities in accessing accommodations. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of "Self-Advocacy and Conflict Resolution" (SACR) instruction on the ability of four high school seniors with mild disabilities to request and negotiate academic accommodations. Results of this multiple probe across participant study indicated a functional relation between "SACR" instruction and students' ability to request and negotiate academic accommodations in a role-play situation and in situ. Implications for practice and suggestions for future research are offered.
