- Abstract
Nowadays, we are influenced by many stereotypes and prejudices that change the way we relate to those around us. The biggest risk we are exposed to by accepting these stereotypes is to marginalize or discriminate against a particular person or group, just because they are different from us. Therefore, in our paper, we are planning to analyze some stereotypes that can negative influence the life of peoples about we consider that are different comparative with us. The sample of research was represented by 1131 persons from Romania and the instrument of research was a questionnaire composed from 25 multiple choice items which tried to investigate the level of possible stereotypes of typically society regarding persons with different disabilities. The obtained results proved that majority of respondents have a common attitude related to persons with disabilities and try to accept them according with their physical and psychological limitations.
