520 |a Spirituality is an understudied topic among people with disabilities, particularly among atheists with disabilities. The current paper explores the research question: how do the spiritual beliefs of people with disabilities affect how they deal with issues related to their disability? Data for this study were gathered from interviews of individuals with disabilities who identified as either Christian or as atheist/agnostic. Atheists reported using meditation to deal with issues related to their disabilities, while Christians reported using prayer. Interestingly, people from both spiritual groups relied on developing a sense of connection with others to deal with issues related to their disability.
