Rehabilitation psychology is based on foundational principles that can guide us toward health equity among disabled and nondisabled communities. We summarize the literature on disparities in the disability community and underscore the urgency to address underlying inequities to eliminate disparities. We include examples of population-level interventions that promote equity in the disability community. We conclude with a call for a broader mission for rehabilitation psychologists based on the field's foundational principles, and outline emerging opportunities to widen our impact and advance equity. Our foundational principles, built on systems theory, call on rehabilitation psychologist to work at macrosystemic levels. As rehabilitation psychologists, we need to widen our focus from the micro (individual) to the macro (population) level. We need to bring the respect, dignity, and collaborative spirit that inspire our work with individuals to the broader community by advocating for structures and policies that promote equity for disabled persons.

促进人口层面的公平：通过残疾宣传将基本原则付诸实践。


康复心理学基于可以指导我们在残疾人和非残疾人社区之间实现健康公平的基本原则。我们总结了有关残疾人群体差异的文献，并强调解决潜在不平等现象以消除差异的紧迫性。我们提供了促进残疾人社区公平的人口层面干预措施的例子。最后，我们呼吁康复心理学家根据该领域的基本原则承担更广泛的使命，并概述扩大影响力和促进公平的新机会。我们的基本原则建立在系统理论的基础上，要求康复心理学家在宏观系统层面上开展工作。作为康复心理学家，我们需要将关注点从微观（个人）层面扩大到宏观（人群）层面。我们需要倡导促进残疾人平等的结构和政策，将激发我们与个人合作的尊重、尊严和协作精神带到更广泛的社区。 （PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2020 APA，保留所有权利）。
