Abstract
The identification of the perception of each of the members of the university community with disabilities is of utmost relevance to implement measures to facilitate inclusion. The objective of this study is to identify the perception that incoming students with disabilities at the University of Sonora have about themselves in their basic functionalities. The method used was a cross-sectional descriptive quantitative study. For data collection, the WHO-DAS 2.0 survey, which includes a Likert-type range of responses, was applied to 45 incoming students with disabilities (20 women and 25 men) at the University of Sonora during the 2021 school year. The results report that most students have a positive perception of their basic functionalities. As a conclusion, it is emphasized that an in-depth follow-up process of each of the cases is necessary. It is also necessary to design pertinent strategies to identify and intervene with the necessary adaptations to facilitate inclusion.
