In addition, the researcher measured the relationship between participants’ perspectives toward accommodations and their assumptions about students with ADHD as well as their perception of professional development provided at KSU. Data was collected using a modification of The Accommodation of University Students with Disabilities Inventory (AUSDI) developed by Wolman, McCrink, Rodriguez, and Harris-Looby (2004). A sample of 479 male and female participants filled out an online questionnaire. The results indicated that the perspectives of participants toward accommodations did not relate to their gender, having a relative or family member with ADHD, or academic rank and discipline. There was also no association between the participants’ perspectives toward accommodations and their perception of professional development provided at KSU. However, the results suggested that the Saudi participants and the participants without previous teaching experience were more positive toward accommodations than were non-Saudi participants and those with no previous teaching experience. There was also a weak positive correlation between the participants’ perspectives toward accommodations and their assumptions about students with ADHD. Finally, the researcher discussed numerous implications of findings, limitations of the present study, and future research. 2014-05-13 English text Kent State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1391201735 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1391201735 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
