Students with Physical and Multiple Disabilities are many cases about being the handicapped, it can be very slight, the mental deficiency, or sometimes seems normal. The deficiency can be either congenital or acquired and someone have either one or more than one. The treatments, education and other supports should be provided for them to utilize their potentials and to live independently.
This study examined about the interrelation between the attribution of handicapped students and the accomplishment about studying based on the attribution theory to help the teacher to utilize the attribution theory.
This study executed the questionnaire about attribution to the students from the special school and general school and the data was analyzed by statistically using SPSS 12.0 for Windows.
The result of this study were as follows;
First, in the case of student's attribution, ability or effort was appeared to be more important than the difficulties of assignment for the both boys and girls. There was the significant difference, as the means of the effort was achieved by sexes and less assignment. It is considered that the handicapped students thought their success or failure according to own effort. It was a very desirable thing.
Second, the handicapped students who said their success came from external factors such as the difficulties of assignment and luck showed high accomplishment in studying and the students who said their failure was caused by their internal factors showed high accomplishment in studying. It was verified that this result did not correspond with the result of preceding study that the important was the control materiality, the success came from internal factors and emotional responses were interacted each other by attribution factors, not by accomplishment itself. Therefore, teacher should offer more successful learning experiences to students and then should let them know intentionally that the students made the success by their ability and effort. Also, the study about the cause of failure should be executed by various methodologies.
From these findings, it was verified that highly accomplished students attributed cause of their success or failure to effort or ability, not accidental or fate. However, in the case of low accomplished students, they attributed cause of their success or failure to luck or fate so that they did not develop their ability to overcome the failure. Therefore, the special education for changing ideas about luck attribution of handicapped students should be accomplished. Also, the future study about the difference about accomplishment should be achieved by utilizing various variables related to studying accomplishment and it should be verified by attribution factors.
