Introduction

Theoretical models applied to people with disabilities shape our understanding of disability and
influence how society perceives and interacts with individuals who have disabilities. These models,
ranging from the medical model to the social and cultural models, offer different perspectives on
disability, influencing policy, social attitudes, and personal identities. This essay critically examines
