“…Partiendo de la premisa de que la educación no solo es un derecho, sino una oportunidad para mujeres y hombres con discapacidad, diversas investigaciones han indagado en el papel que desempeña el sexo y el nivel educativo en el autoconcepto de población afectada por dificultades visuales. Así, se ha puesto de manifiesto diferencias ligadas al sexo en el autoconcepto de adolescentes con discapacidad visual (Al-Zyoudi, 2007;Augestad, 2017b;López-Justicia y Pichardo, 2001), aunque otros no han hallado diferencias significativas (Datta y Talukdar, 2016;Garaigordobil y Bernarás, 2009;Mishra y Singh, 2012), pero sí constataron que las chicas tenían puntuaciones más bajas en autoestima, variable vinculada estrechamente con el autoconcepto (Garaigordobil y Bernarás, 2009), y presentaban síntomas depresivos con mayor frecuencia (Augestad, 2017a). Otro estudio llevado a cabo entre personas afectadas por RP con un rango muy amplio de edad (entre 19 y 60 años), detectó que las mujeres se percibían mejor que los hombres en el factor/dimensión física y que aquellas con un nivel más alto de estudios puntuaban más positivamente en este factor o dimensión .…”

RESUMEN Introducción: Dada la relevancia del autoconcepto en el ámbito educativo y en la vida personal, social y laboral, en la presente investigación se analizan intra-sexos las dificultades en este constructo en jóvenes de 18 a 30 años (14 hombres y 23 mujeres) con degeneración retiniana, frente a otros sin afectación; indagando en el papel que desempeña el nivel de estudios (primarios/secundarios, universitarios). Método: Participaron 74 personas (37 afectados y 37 sin afectación), igualados en sexo y nivel educativo. Se utilizó la Escala de Autoconcepto Tennesse y un cuestionario sociodemográfico elaborado ad hoc. Resultados: Los resultados obtenidos en los distintos análisis no paramétricos llevados a cabo mostraron que, tanto entre mujeres como entre hombres afectados, se detectaron puntuaciones inferiores en autoconcepto físico; constatándose igualmente que las mujeres con estudios superiores se percibían mejor en éste; mientras que los hombres obtenían mayores puntuaciones en el factor personal. Conclusiones: Se sugiere a los profesionales de la orientación y psicopedagogía que trabajan con estos jóvenes identificar los puntos fuertes en los que cada cual destaque reforzándolos y resaltándolos, así como detectar los aspectos más deficitarios del autoconcepto para entrenarlos, en aras de favorecer el sentimiento de valía y competencia personal.ABSTRACTIntroduction: Attending to the relevance of self-concept in the educational field and in the personal, social and labor life, this study analyzed the difficulties intra-sexes of young people between 18 to 30 years old (14 men y 23 women) affected by a retinal degeneration, compared to others without affectation; enquire into the role of the academic level (primary/secondary, university). Method: Participants were 74 people (37 affected and 37 non-affected), matched in sex and educational level. The Tennessee Self-Concept Scale and a sociodemographic questionnaire elaborated ad hoc were used. Results: The results obtained in the different non-parametric analysis carried out, between affected women and between affected men, showed that lower scores were detected in physical self-concept; verifying that women with higher studies were perceived better in this; while men obtained higher scores in personal self-concept. Conclusions: Data suggested to the guidance and psychopedagogy professionals who work with these young people to identify the strong points in which each one stands out, reinforcing and highlighting them, as well as detecting the most deficient aspects of the self-concept in order to train them, in order to promote the feeling of worth and personal competence.

“…Datta and Talukdar (2016) explored the impact of visual impairment on six particular domains of self-concept (physical, moral, personal, family, social, and academic) and on global self-concept of blind and partially sighted adolescents, aged from 15 to 18 years, and young adults, aged from 19 to 25 years. The sample consisted of 25 participants and the study took place in special and mainstream schools in South Australia.…”

“…There is a high level of variability regarding the onset and extent of vision loss and the age range of the participants in the studies above: López-Justicia et al (2001) examined the self-concept of children and adolescents with low vision aged from 4 to 17 years (blind participants were excluded from the study); Lifshitz et al (2007) measured the self-concept of sighted, blind, and partially sighted adolescents aged from 13 to 18 years; Halder and Datta (2012) focused on the self-concept of sighted and blind adolescents aged from 15 to 18 years (in this case, partially sighted adolescents were excluded); Grønmo and Augestad (2000) also focused on the self-concept of sighted and blind adolescents aged from 13 to 16 years, and adolescents with low vision were excluded from the study; Garaigordobil and Bernarás (2009) compared the self-concept of adolescents with and without visual impairments (there was no distinction between blind and partially sighted adolescents in the analysis section); and Datta and Talukdar (2016) compared the self-concept of blind and partially sighted adolescents aged from 15 to 18 years and young adults aged from 19 to 25 years. Thus, it is hard to draw out consistent patterns.…”

An account is given of a current research project which is examining the impact of social inclusion on the self-concept of adolescents with visual impairments and the way this differs from their typically developing sighted peers. The study considers developmental and cognitive theories which are used to explain the development of self-concept in typical and atypical adolescents and the impact of social inclusion on this particular aspect of mental health.

“…Dutta and Talukdar (2016) [19] reported that majority of the students with vision impairment obtained low scores on all dimensions of self-concept, namely physical, moral, personal, family, social and academic, some students obtained normal scores in relation to family and academic self-concepts but there is no significant differences between female and male students with vision impairment across the six dimensions of self-concept and thus total self-concept.…”
