The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship of acceptance of disability and life satisfaction to the onset of disabilities among individuals with disabilities. Two-hundreds and thirty-three adults who are registered as having a physical disability residing in seven metropolitan cities in Korea participated in this study. A mail survey were used. A result of t-test indicated that a statistically significant relationship existed between the acceptance of disability and the onset of disabilities. That is, participants who experienced his or her disability at the earlier age of their lives are more likely to demonstrate more positive attitudes toward his or her disabilities as compared to their counterparts whose onset of disability were at later years of his/her life. However, no statistically significant relationship was found between the life satisfaction and the onset of disability. These findings suggested that an individualized vocational rehabilitation program which is based on the onset of disability as well as the level of acceptance of disability for individuals with physical disabilities are needed. Implications for the vocational rehabilitation practice and suggestions for the future research are discussed.
