Abstract

The purpose of this study is to confirm the relationship between self-efficacy, interpersonal relationships, and self-esteem on the acceptance of disabilities in people with disabilities, and to identify the mediating effect of self-esteem. SPSS 26.0 and WarpPLS 8.0 were used to analyze descriptive statistics and structural equation models for the research data. First, the self-efficacy of the disabled had a significant positive effect on self-esteem and had a positive effect on acceptance of disability. Second, interpersonal relationships had a significant positive effect on self-esteem and disability acceptance. Third, self-efficacy had a positive effect on disability acceptance through self-esteem as a partial medium, and interpersonal relationships had a positive effect on disability acceptance through self-esteem as a partial medium. Fourth, the interpersonal relationship of severely disabled people did not affect disability acceptance, but the interpersonal relationship of mildly disabled people had a significant positive effect on disability acceptance. The results of this study can be used as data for establishing welfare policies to strengthen disability acceptance, self-efficacy, interpersonal relationships and self-esteem of the disabled.
