This study sought the perspective of female special education students at Mu’tah University to determine the stereotypical image of people with Down syndrome. To achieve the aims of this study, a scale testing the stereotypical image of people with Down syndrome was administered to a random sample of 120 female special education students. The results indicated that female special education students harbored a neutral stereotypical image of people with Down syndrome. In terms of the academic year, statistically significant differences favoring third- and fourth-year students were observed in the dimension of health-related problems. No differences were noted in the general stereotyping of people with Down syndrome between the academic years, students taking a course on intellectual disability, and respondents with previous experience in dealing with people with Down syndrome.

This study aimed to identify the level of psychological and social adaptation of students with varying levels of visual disabilities at Mu’tah University and the effect of gender on it. To achieve these aims, the researcher prepared and used a psychological and social adaptation scale to collect data from twelve students with visual impairment or blindness (both male and female). The results showed that the levels of psychological and social adaptation were moderate. Further, there were no statistically significant differences between students with visual impairment in psychological and social adaptation levels due to gender, only in psychological adaption favoring males. One of the most important recommendations of this study was to provide psychological support and counseling services to students with visual impairment or blindness at the university’s student counseling office. Keywords: Psychological adaptation, social adaptation, visual impairment, blindness, Mu'tah University; Jordan.
