A sample of 1,295 students consisting 782 non-impaired, 97 hearing-impaired and 216 physically- impaired students were selected from twelve schools in seven Nigerian states. Majority of the students were psycho-socially adjusted and had significant relationship between their social, psychological and psycho-social adjustment with psychological adjustment relating more to psycho-social adjustment.
