English Usage. There are two main stages to be observed in the development of the English terminology used in this regard. The first stage is represented by the International Classification of Impairments, Disabilities and Handicaps (ICIDH) which was first published by the Morld Health Organisation for trial purposes in к98o. This classification adopted three main terms, viz., impairment, disability and handicap. Impairment was used to mean “any loss or abnormality of psychological or anatomical structure or function.” Disability was interpreted as “any restriction or lack (resulting from an impairment) of ability to perform an activity in the manner or within the range considered normal for a human being.” Finally, handicap was defined as “a disadvantage for a given individual, resulting from an impairment or disability, that limits or prevents the fulfilment of a role that is normal, depending on age, sex, social and cultural factors, for that individual.”234 Commenting on these definitions, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx (Director of the Morld Institute on Disability) said that handicap is therefore a distortion of the relationship between disabled persons and their environment. It occurs when they encounter cultural, physical or social barriers, which prevent their access to the various systems of society that are available to other citizens.23ȷ After these three terms, a new stage was presented by the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF). This new classification replaced the old one after systematic field trials and international consultation over years and had been finally endorsed by the fifty-fourth Morld Health Assembly for international use on May 22, 2ooк (resolution MHAȷ4.2к).236 New terms were used in this classification with specific meanings that differed from everyday usage and were intended to allow positive experiences to be described.235 In the 2ooк version of ICF, “disability” was defined as an umbrella term for impairments, activity limitations and participation restrictions. It denoted the negative aspects of the interaction between an individual (with a health condition) and that individual’s contextual factors (environmental and personal factors).238 Again the main items of this definition were further defined as follows: that has been revised and thus replaced by the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), 2ooк adds credit to this fact.
