Abstract	The Attitudes Toward Disabled Persons Scale was used to measure the attitudes of special education and rehabilitation workers, elementary and secondary teachers, managers and executives, and laborers from 11 nations toward the physically disabled or handicapped and toward education. Hypotheses based on Kerlinger's theoretical model were investigated: traditionalism, or a conservative-traditional approach to educational issues emphasizing subject matter for its own sake, external discipline, and maintenance of the status quo; and progressivism, emphasizing the problem solving approach, internal discipline, liberal social beliefs, and education as an instrument for change. Attitudes were related to values, sex, contact with disabled persons, enjoyment of contact, change orientation, institutional satisfaction, religiosity, group membership, modernization, and multidimensionality. Results are summarized; 69 tables present data. (RP)
