Abstract
Since inclusion of disabled people is in progress, it is essential not only to name the problems of disabled people but also analyze the resources they possess. Perceived social support is one of the resources which play the key role in helping individuals to solve disability-related problems. Social support as a multidimensional concept can be divided into emotional support, socializing support, financial assistance, practical assistance and advice/guidance, such support is usually provided by family and friends. All these types of support are important for any individual but it is still unclear which of them are the most related to acceptance of disability. The aim of the study was to assess the relationship between perceived social support from family and friends and acceptance of disability among mobility impaired people.
