Abstract

The objective is to assess the psychological and educational support for individuals with disabilities in higher education, evaluate their present status, and anticipate future advancements in enhancing their quality of life. The article used the methods of prediction, analysis, synthesis, and survey, due to which it was possible to form an idea of assessment and self-assessment of persons with disabilities. The results reflect the essence of inclusion in modern higher education, the process of introduction of which began in the 1970s. Based on theoretical analysis it is proved that inclusive education is intended to form the most favorable environment, to establish humanization of social relations in universities, and to obtain opportunities for quality and accessible higher education for all categories of the population. The conclusions also identify further ways of modernizing the psychological and pedagogical support for the quality of life of persons with disabilities.
