Perception of the Capabilities and Personality of a Blind Radio Interviewer

The study investigated students’ perception of a radio interviewer's capabilities and personality. Half the subjects were told he was blind and the rest were not given this information. Opinions relating to the ‘blind’ interviewer were significantly more favorable. This finding contradicts the extensive literature indicating stereotyped negative attitudes toward the blind. Several explanations of the findings are discussed.
