Promoting the health and social participation of adolescents with intellectual disability is important as they are particularly vulnerable to encountering difficulties in those areas. Integration of these individuals in integrated sports is one strategy to address this issue.
The main objective of this study was to gain a better understanding of the factors associated with the integration of adolescents with intellectual disability in sports alongside their non-disabled peers. Individual interviews were completed with 40 adolescents with intellectual disability and their parents, while 39 rehabilitation staff participated via either a discussion group or self-administered questionnaires. The Disability Creation Process (DCP) theoretical model was used to frame the analysis and the presentation of the findings (The Quebec Classification: Disability Creation Process. International Network on the Disability Creation Process/CSICIDH, Québec, QC, 1998).
Various personal and environmental factors that have an impact on integration in sports were identified by participants. For example, attitudes, practical support, individuals' experiences in sports and in integrated settings as well as behaviour control emerged as important elements to consider.
Integration in integrated sports can engender a lot of benefits for individuals with intellectual disability, their parents and non-disabled athletes. However, many barriers need to be removed before such benefits can be more widely realized.
促进智障青少年的健康和社会参与非常重要，因为他们在这些领域特别容易遇到困难。将这些人融入融合运动是解决这一问题的策略之一。
本研究的主要目的是更好地了解与智障青少年与非残疾同龄人一起参与体育活动相关的因素。对 40 名智障青少年及其父母进行了个人访谈，而 39 名康复工作人员则通过讨论组或自我管理问卷参与了研究。使用残疾创造过程（DCP）理论模型来构建分析和呈现研究结果（魁北克残疾创造过程分类：国际残疾创造过程网络/CSICIDH，魁北克省，1998 年）。
参与者确定了影响体育融合的各种个人和环境因素。例如，态度、实际支持、个人在体育和融合环境中的经验以及行为控制等都是需要考虑的重要因素。
融入融合运动可以为智障人士、他们的父母和非残疾运动员带来很多好处。然而，在这些好处得到更广泛的实现之前，需要消除许多障碍。
