Abstract
The Dis/ability and Drama Therapy Lab at Lesley University conducted a community-wide survey aimed at better understanding drama therapists’ attitudes toward dis/ability. This survey was modeled after previous surveys conducted in creative arts therapies; a combination of a validated measure and researcher-designed questions were used to elicit information on attitudes, experiences, frameworks used, and confidence levels. Open ended questions were paired with quantitative measures to allow for respondent elaboration, and qualitative data are utilized to illustrate and support quantitative results. Data were analyzed from 146 participants who met inclusion criteria. Results indicate that while drama therapists hold overall positive attitudes toward dis/ability, there are significant gaps in knowledge that need to be addressed.
