Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between the incorporation of assistive technology (AT) and the academic accomplishments of students with specific needs in Saudi Arabian universities. The study uses a quantitative methodology to examine data from a sample of one hundred participants. It employs descriptive, correlation, and regression analysis. The findings reveal a strong and significant association (r = 0.68, p < 0.001) between the frequency of AT consumption and students reported academic success. The regression evaluation highlights the predictive role of AT in academic outcomes (β = 5.7, p < 0.001). Recommendations encompass a comprehensive approach to supporting instructors, ensuring accessibility for assistive technology, providing administrative assistance, and promoting parental involvement. These findings contribute to the development of inclusive educational environments.
