Description

This session "connects the dots" between emotional regulation, the development of self-determination and intrinsic motivation, and the diminution of the use of force and coercion that is too prevalent in the lives of people with disabilities. Based on research and practice, the panelists present core elements and findings, or dots, that lead to a higher degree of self-determination and quality of life, free of coercion and force.
