A disability may be physical, cognitive, mental, sensory, emotional, developmental or some combination of these. An individual may also qualify as disabled if he/she has had an impairment in the past or is seen as disabled based on a personal or group standard or norm . Such impairments may include physical, sensory , and cognitive or developmental disabilities . Mental disorders (also known as psychiatric or psychosocial disability) and various types of chronic disease may also qualify as disabilities. Some advocates object to describing certain conditions (notably deafness and autism ) as disabilities , arguing that it is more appropriate to consider them developmental differences that have been unfairly stigmatized by society. A disability may occur during a person s lifetime or may be present from birth.
