Commonly studied physical functions include activities such as walking and climbing stairs. Despite the acknowledged role of environmental factors and behavioral strategies to compensate for reduced performance capacity or environmental barriers in characterizing physical functioning, most assessments do not take these factors into account. This article presents a new conceptual model for assessment of relevant physical functioning while accounting for habitual environmental factors and compensation strategies.
常见的身体功能研究包括步行和爬楼梯等活动。尽管环境因素和行为策略在描述身体功能时对弥补性能能力下降或环境障碍所起的作用已得到认可,但大多数评估并未考虑这些因素。本文提出了一种新的概念模型,用于在考虑习惯性环境因素和补偿策略的同时评估相关身体功能。
