2019
It is important to look at how education materials for students with disability view disability itself.

Tällaisia asioita lapset kertoivat isästään, mutta mitä nämä tarinat kertovat meille nykypäivän isyydestä? Materialla näyttää olevan monenlaisia tehtäviä lasten arjessa ja lapsen ja isän suhteessa.

The results showed that over time the participants both progressed in adapting to their traumatic losses.
