Abstract
This study focuses on the attachment style and anxiety of blind persons in connection with segregating and integrating types of schools, and the age and mode of losing their sight. Sample: 86 blind people (48 female and 38 male, mean age are 37,4 years; SD = 15,4 years), 50% of sample learned in a segregated school, and 50% of them learned in integrated school during their school years. Methods: Relationship Scale Questionnaire, Beck’s Anxiety Inventory, questions about schools, and age and mode of losing sight. Results: blind people show a higher rate of avoiding attachment. There is no significant difference between segregated or integrated education and attachment style and anxiety. The age and mode of losing sight have no effect on these variables.
