Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)
Not all disabilities are apparent; you cannot identify a person with disabilities just by looking at them. This study aims to address whether professors’ disability-related attitudes, perceptions of accommodation reasonableness, and willingness to provide accommodations differ when a student’s disability is recognizable (student is pictured in a wheelchair), unrecognizable (student is pictured in a chair), or when no visual is present (standard documentation control) and whether the professor’s level of disability-related knowledge and perceptions of institutional support mediates this relationship.
