Abstrakt:

In recent years, Poland has seen a change in the identification of people with disabilities. It is noticeableto abandon the use of the terms disabled, blind, cripple, invalid. In this place are the terms a person witha disability, a person with special needs. This indicates a tendency to deviate from the definition of disabilityor its type, in the direction of putting the person first and replacing the concept of disability withother terms that do not have a stigmatizing character. The goal of the article was to show the relationshipbetween the changing language describing and defining disability and changes in the perception of peoplewith disabilities and their impact on the sense of exclusion of people with disabilities. The research useda method of content analysis to recreate disability terms functioning in the opinion of people with disabilitiesin social discourse and an online survey was used to examine the relationship between the sense of exclusionand disability terms, ways of perceiving oneself and the assessment of the society’s attitude towardspeople with disabilities. This allowed to show the meaning of the language and its impact on the processesof integration of people with disabilities in contemporary Poland.
