Abstract | This commentary suggests that individuals' perceptions of mental retardation may be at least partially the result of social factors. Interactionist/phenomenological theoretical tenets are summarized to develop the view that mental retardation is socially constructed. The influence of values in how society treats people with retardation is briefly considered. (SW) |
