how disability is different from a disorder??
Answers
Answer:
A “disability” would be defined as something that happens when someone has a condition that reduces their skills in some area of life that society expects them to have. For example, someone who has broken their back and uses a wheelchair cannot get upstairs in their chair, but society expects that everyone should be able to use stairs. Thus the person with the spinal cord injury has a disability. It’s a social category, focusing on the mismatch between what you can do and what the world expects.
“Disorder” is a more medical category. It implies that there’s something about the body or the brain that isn’t working smoothly. Maybe it’s off-balance; maybe it developed in an atypical way. Disorder implies that the way something’s working isn’t ideal, for whatever reason. It’s closely related to the term “syndrome”, which means a collection of symptoms that often occurs together.
