- Title
Cognitively Disabled: Commentary on Smith's Making Monster.
- Authors
Schwitzgebel, Eric; Green, Amelie
- Abstract
The article focuses on extending David Livingstone Smith's framework of dehumanization to cases of cognitive disability examining how individuals with severe cognitive disabilities are often subjected to abuse and mistreatment. Schwitzgebel and Green discuss Smith's perspective on dehumanization, particularly the conflicting beliefs caregivers may hold and explore hypotheses related to the abuse of cognitively disabled individuals, including convenience, sadism, dehumanization, and retaliation.
