Abstract

In rehabilitation psychology disability appears primarily as a subject of coping with the onset of impairment or chronic illness. Disability Studies criticize that this restricts the perspective negatively and neglects a culture of disabled people including affirmation, self-representation and minority culture. In the following the debate around disability identity is discussed and, under representation of the discussions outlined around sociology of impairment, it is carved out that the unsettled relation between disability and impairment, as an entangled interaction between body and sociality, is also an open question for a psychology of disability.
