ESSAYBID ANSWER

ANS: A
The Nagi model uses functional limitations, which have been defined and are measureable, to determine whether an individual is disabled. However, the current paradigm considers the environmental barriers and the perspectives of the onlooker when considering if an individual is disabled. Thus, the other options do not address the limitation of using only functional limitations.
