The perceptions of life satisfaction among adults with physical disabilities were examined in this research. Personal interviews were conducted with 790 adults who had a physical disability. Data were collected using the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale, Rosenberg's Self-esteem Scale, and the Life 3 Scale. Results from a stepwise multiple regression analysis (n = 344) indicated that leisure satisfaction was the most significant predictor of life satisfaction, explaining 42% of the variance in the life satisfaction scores for this population. An additional 11% of the variance in life satisfaction was explained by scores on financial status, self-esteem, health satisfaction, religious satisfaction, and marital status. Findings from this research highlight the role that leisure satisfaction plays in enhancing life satisfaction among individuals with physical disabilities. Furthermore, the findings suggest that leisure and life satisfaction levels are influenced by employment status and whether the disability was acquired. Discussion centers on the potential contribution that therapeutic recreation can have in the rehabilitation arena.
本研究考察了成年身体残疾者的生活满意度认知情况。对790名成年身体残疾者进行了个人访谈。使用流行病学研究中心抑郁量表、罗森伯格自尊量表和生活3量表收集数据。逐步多元回归分析（n = 344）的结果表明，休闲满意度是生活满意度最显著的预测因素，解释了该人群生活满意度得分中42%的方差变异。生活满意度另外11%的方差变异由财务状况、自尊、健康满意度、宗教满意度和婚姻状况得分解释。本研究结果凸显了休闲满意度在提高身体残疾者生活满意度方面所起的作用。此外，研究结果表明，休闲和生活满意度水平受就业状况以及残疾是否为后天获得的影响。讨论集中在治疗性娱乐在康复领域可能做出的贡献上。
