- Abstract
This research aims to provide an overview of psychological well- being among students with Multiple Disabilities and Visual Impairment (MDVI) pursuing higher education. The study employs a qualitative approach with a case study method, involving in-depth interviews and observations of participants. The findings reveal that internal factors such as optimism and a sense of meaning in life play a crucial role in shaping the psychological well-being of MDVI students. Social support from peers, instructors, and educational institutions also has a significant influence on their positive perceptions and life satisfaction. However, challenges related to negative societal perceptions and stereotypes about their needs are also identified. The study provides a deeper understanding of the psychological well-being of MDVI students within the context of inclusive education, along with strategic implications for the development of more inclusive and empowering educational strategies for individuals with special needs.
