That play is a need-fulfilling and appropriate occupation in the life of every person, and particularly in the life of the handicapped, is the basic assumption of this paper. Play is defined, characterized, and discussed in relationship to its role in the treatment process. Various classical and modern theories of play are presented, with the optimum arousal theory of play presented as most significant in the rehabilitation process of the handicapped individual. The approach to this assumption is basically theoretical, and concludes with pragmatic suggestions for optimizing the meaningful involvement of patients in play.
本文的基本假设是，玩耍是每个人生活中一种满足需求且恰当的活动，对于残疾人的生活而言尤其如此。本文从玩耍在治疗过程中的作用出发，对玩耍进行了定义、描述和讨论。文中介绍了各种经典和现代的玩耍理论，其中玩耍的最佳唤醒理论被认为在残疾人康复过程中最为重要。对这一假设的探讨基本是理论性的，最后给出了一些务实的建议，以优化患者在玩耍中的有益参与。
