Answer: The correct answer is : the demonological model

Explanation: It is one of the explanatory models of disability. In this case, in the demonological model, disability is: demonic possession, which was associated with evil. The disabled for this reason were locked up, killed and burned, because they said that society should do without these people because they were not necessary, did not contribute to community life, transmitted diabolical messages and were a cause of anger of the gods.
