The purpose of this research is to investigate the process of completion of life
scripts that affects directly in the visually impaired adults' lives. For this, interviews
for 20 visually impaired adults living in Seoul and Gyeong-gi area were recruited and
as a result, the organic roles of attitude variables for life goal, parenting environment
and attitude, ego state and attitude to visual impairment that affected in the 3 periods,
formation, modification, and completion of life script, were revealed. Firstly, in the life
goal category, it appeared that all 3 types (winner, loser, non-winner) changed their
unrealistic goals of childhood to realistic goals in adolescence and it was revealed that
the grounds for the change were self conviction (winner), negative awareness of
reality (loser), and realistic assessment of one's ability (non-winner). Secondly, in the
parenting environment and attitude there were no differences in the 3 types, and
thirdly, in the ego state, it appeared as active(winner), negative(loser), positive and
compromising(non-winner). Fourthly, for the attitude towards the visual impairment,
characteristics were prominent for each life cycle, as during childhood there was
generally no awareness or judgement towards disability. During adolescence there were
significant differences among the 3 types, and it appeared this was extended and
reinforced during adult period. The winner extended their active and positive acception
of disability in adolescence to infinite possibilities in adult period. The loser continued
to retain their negative and critical acception in adolescence until adult period, and the
non-winner changed their positive and compromising acception in adolescence
passively to a form of adaptation to reality in adult period. This research is meaningful
in that it analyzes for each life cycle, the main causes that affect the visually impaired
adults' completion of life scripts, and presents the roles and relations.
