Fatalism is believing in the impact of superhuman power or external forces like chance/luck in life. This research was conducted for a comparative study of fatalism among disabled and non-disabled people. In this research, a survey method was used. 200 people with physical disabilities, cerebral palsy (CP) and blindness and 200 non-disabled people from Yazd in 2018 were selected. Available quote sampling method was used to select disabled people and systematic cluster sampling was used to select non-disabled people. Data collection tools include the responsibility scale of Ahmadi Akhorme et.al (1392), the ability of Peterson and Seligman (2004), Weissman & Beck`s (1978) dysfunctional attitudes and researcher questioner made by fatalism.

The average fatalism is 48.3 in disabled people and 45 in non-disabled people. The result of hypothesis showed that the measure of fatalism is higher in disabled people. In disabled people, there was a significant/meaningful relationship between fatalism and the studied variables such as education (with meaningful level, age, severity of disability, inefficient attitudes, empowerment and responsibility. In non-disabled people, there was a meaningful relationship between fatalism and inefficient attitude variables and empowerment, but there wasn’t any significant relationship between fatalism and other studied variables.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare and evaluate the relationship between self-esteem and its related factors among individuals with physical-motor disabilities. The method used in this research is a comparative survey. The statistical population of the present study was 1600 people with physical-motor disabilities in the city of Yazd 2018. According to the Cochran formula, a sample of 310 individuals were obtained. A group of 155 people with physical-motor disabilities without higher education and 155 university graduates with physical-motor disabilities were studied under the auspices of the Yazd Welfare Organization. The data collection tools were the Rosenberg self-efficacy scale, SF-36 quality of life by the World Health Organization, and Sherer et al.’s (1982) self-efficacy. The mean self-esteem for all the participants was 36.30, which is more than average. The results of this research generally showed that university-graduates have more self-esteem than those without university education. There was a significant relationship between self-efficacy and self-esteem. Therefore, according to the results of this study, it is necessary for social institutions and social workers to modify the attitudes of societies toward empowerment through education, cultural activities, effective media plans and appropriate social programs.
