  This study aimed to verify the reliability and construct validity of Disability Awareness Program (DAP) scale in a multicenter setting for students wishing to become teachers in the future. Cross-sectional data and longitudinal data were collected at University in Yamaguchi and Miyazaki, Okinawa, Miyagi prefecture between January 2020 to May 2020. The reliability of DAP scale was verified via the internal consistency method; the coefficient of Cronbach’s α were over 0.7 (0.829 for all items). The validity of DAP scale was also verified via one-way repeated-measures ANOVA and the latent growth curve model. The total scores of DAP scale obtained from one-way repeated-measures ANOVA were the same as the predicted scores. DAP scale is valid based on its goodness-of-fit values obtained using the latent growth curve model, the values of comparative fit index and root mean square error of approximation were within the goodness-of-fit range (CFI=0.998, RMSEA=0.017). These results indicate that DAP scale has high reliability and construct validity.

  In order to form a symbiotic society in Japan and to realize inclusive education, which is an idea to learn together regardless of disability, it is urgent to actively hire teachers with disabilities even at school. However, since research on faculty with disabilities is said to have been conducted since the fiscal year 2019 onward, the actual situation has been investigated. And the current situation and issues regarding the employment of faculty with disabilities are almost unclear.Therefore, in this study, based on the viewpoint of improving the QOL (Quality of Life) of teachers with disabilities, we analyze the previous studies related to the employment of persons with disabilities at schools in Japan, and clarify the current situation and academic issues regarding the employment of teachers with disabilities. As a result of the analysis, many previous studies have been found in the area of "employment stability", but they also point out the current situation and it was revealed that further studies are needed. Moreover, in the "physical and mental health" area and the "life stability" area, there were very few cases applicable, and it became clear that research was not progressing.

  　View Summary

  Although disability awareness program is implemented in the medical, welfare, and education fields, the effectiveness of disability awareness programs has not been clarified. If a disability awareness program outcome evaluation scale that can be used across fields is developed, it is possible to quantitatively clearly indicate what program content was implemented and what effect was obtained. This study verifies the content validity in order to develop the Disability Awareness Program (DAP) scale. In this study, in order to develop the DAP scale; Prepared a scale (draft) and construction concepts was examined by experts and students (the Content Validity Verification). As a result, a scale of 3 areas and 15 items was developed. The scale consists of three areas: “Awareness of basic human rights”, “Awareness of disability”, and “Awareness of diversity” and the items include the elements of “Disability Rights Convention”, “the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health”, and “diversity”.

  　View Summary

  At present, evaluation of “adaptive behavior" is regarded as important in intellectual disability, and it is considered that it is not difficult to manage daily life by providing appropriate educational support and social support (MEXT, 2013). People are affected by the environment and their psychology changes, leading to action. If they have a disorder, in addition to the psychological aspect, the physiological and pathological aspects are also affected. Therefore, for children with intellectual disabilities, higher educational effects can be expected by providing educational support in consideration of psychological, physiological, and pathological aspects.Therefore, in this research, by defining the definition and diagnostic criteria of mental disorders and organizing psychology, physiology, and pathological factors, 1) Examine whether the contents related to psychological, physiological, pathological changes are described in the diagnostic criteria or adaptive behavior. 2) In addition, from the point of the QOL of intellectual disabilities persons and the QOL of children, it examined what kind of domain is necessary when capturing the psychological, physiological, and pathological changes of children with intellectual disabilities.
