or the affirmation model, others "continue to accept the older views and regard
themselves as victims of personal misfortune" (p. 884). She proposes a typology of
disability identity encompassing seven types:
Normalization
acceptance and achievement of the norms of the larger society, with or without acceptance of disability stigma
