Abstract EN

The current study aimed at developing self-determination skills and improving the quality of life among a sample of blind university students.

The study sample consisted of (9) blind students from King Khalid University in Abha, suffering from poor self-determination skills and low quality of life.

The following tools were used: Self-determination skills scale (prepared by the researchers), quality of life scale (prepared by the researchers), and the training program (prepared by the researchers).

The results of the research indicated the effectiveness of the training program used for developing self-determination skills and improving the quality of life among the study sample.

The results were interpreted considering the theoretical frameworks and related literature, as well as considering the cultural and societal frameworks of the current study sample.

The results of the study recommended that self-determination skills and quality of life should be included within the programs provided for the blind, and within their school curricula.
