To describe and compare the context of participation of children with physical disabilities and complex communication needs (Group CCN) in out-of-school activities with children with physical disabilities only (Group PD) and typically-developing peers (Group TD).
A cross-sectional, matched, multi-group design was used. Thirty-nine participants between 10-15 years of age were administered the Children's Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment.
Kruskall-Wallis analyses revealed that there were significant differences among the three groups for overall location, enjoyment of the activities and with whom they did the social and self-improvement activities with. Mean trends showed that Group CCN participated in activities closer to home rather than in the community, were restricted in social participation and reported higher levels of enjoyment in activity participation than the other two groups.
Group CCN appeared to experience differences in participation when compared to peers with and without disability.
描述并比较有身体残疾及复杂沟通需求的儿童（CCN组）与仅有身体残疾的儿童（PD组）以及发育正常的同龄人（TD组）参与校外活动的情况。
采用横断面、匹配、多组设计。对39名10至15岁的参与者进行了儿童参与和享受情况评估。
克鲁斯卡尔-沃利斯分析显示，三组在活动的总体地点、对活动的享受程度以及进行社交和自我提升活动的对象方面存在显著差异。平均趋势表明，CCN组参与离家较近而非社区的活动，社交参与受限，且报告的活动参与享受程度高于其他两组。
与有残疾和无残疾的同龄人相比，CCN组在参与方面似乎存在差异。
