Standard Disability Tables Concepts,
definitions, and classifications of disability were reviewed as well as
the suggested approach to collecting data on disability in censuses.
Global Measures of
Disability

questions that could be useful in census formats.The impact of the cut point associated with limited questions on estimates of disability
was of particular concern.
Exploring

This session
explored the identification of disability and whether the lack of

device use alters a true count of what is happening within a population.
Does the lack of accurate consideration of all devices and their use
compromise our measures? How does this impact on global indicators?
What are the Unique
Cultural Practices that Influence the Nature of the Environment or
Prescribe or Proscribe Participation?

in futility.These
presentations address the cultural attitudes within which the
questions must be framed. Does this problem constitute a barrier to
collecting comparable data?
