The concept of disability pride involves all EXCEPT:

a) Claiming "disability" and experiences of disability in a positive or neutral way
b) Focusing on overcoming disability in order to be whole and fulfilled
c) Rejecting the notion that being disabled is a shameful experience
d) Finding a positive self-concept in the body one has, rather than in comparison to a norm

Answer :

Disability pride embraces one's identity as a disabled person in a positive or neutral way (option a). It rejects the idea that disabilities are shameful and promotes a positive self-concept without comparisons to societal norms. Focusing on overcoming disability to feel fulfilled does not align with this concept.

The concept of disability pride is an embracing of one's identity and experiences as a person with disabilities. It is a rejection of the societal notions that disability is something shameful or negative.

This pride involves aspects such as claiming disability and experiences in a positive or neutral way, finding a positive self-concept in the body one has, and rejecting the idea that being disabled is inherently shameful.

However, focusing on overcoming disability as a means to feel whole and fulfilled is not in line with disability pride, as it suggests that one must change to fit a societal norm of what is considered 'whole' or 'proper.'
