to verify whether there are associations among occupational roles, independence to perform Activities of Daily Living, purchasing power, and assistive technology for individuals with physical disabilities.
91 individuals with physical disabilities participated in the study. The instruments used were: Role Checklist, Brazilian Economic Classification Criterion, Barthel Index, and a Questionnaire to characterize the subjects.
an association with a greater number of roles was found among more independent individuals using a lower number of technological devices. Higher purchasing power was associated with a lower functional status of dependence.
even though technology was not directly associated with independence, the latter was associated with a greater number of occupational roles, which requires reflection upon independence issues when considering the participation in occupational roles. These findings support interdisciplinary actions designed to promote occupational roles in individuals with physical disabilities.
验证身体残疾者的职业角色、独立进行日常生活活动的能力、购买力和辅助技术之间是否存在关联。
91名身体残疾者参与了该研究。使用的工具包括：角色清单、巴西经济分类标准、巴氏指数以及一份用于描述研究对象特征的问卷。
在使用较少技术设备的更独立个体中，发现与更多角色存在关联。较高的购买力与较低的功能依赖状态相关。
尽管技术与独立性没有直接关联，但独立性与更多的职业角色相关，这在考虑参与职业角色时需要对独立性问题进行反思。这些发现支持旨在促进身体残疾者职业角色的跨学科行动。
