The study aims to investigate how the level of body awareness relates to perceptions of individuals with disabilities.
Cross-sectional design with 250 volunteers aged 18-35 from Kırklareli, Turkey.
Participants completed the Perception Towards Disabled Individuals Scale (PTDIS) and the Body Awareness Questionnaire (BAQ).
Spearman's correlation and multiple linear regression analyses were conducted to explore relationships and predictive effects.
BAQ scores were positively correlated with PTDIS scores (r = .209, p < .001), indicating a weak positive relationship.
Multiple regression analysis showed BAQ is a significant predictor of PTDIS (β = .289, p < .001) along with age (β = -.194, p = .003).
The regression model accounted for 9.6% of the variance in perceptions towards disabled individuals.
