Data collection was carried out in Hungary by experts analyzing the change of capability to work on a nationally representative sample. This allows us to highlight also the regional differences, because the motivational status sharply reflected this geographical impact. Besides the socio-economical status, not only motivational readiness was studied, but also factors responsible for cognitive and emotional immunity. Points of intervention were also identified, where the motivation processes could be catalyzed. The aim of this paper is to provide a concise summary of results, to give tentative interpretations and finally to identify practical intervention possibilities to increase handicapped persons’ motivation to work in Hungary.</p> ER -
