To explore the experiences of young people with physical disabilities relating to social inclusion and physical activity, in order to describe the characteristics of social environments that support participation in physical activity.
An iterative, qualitative design employed in-depth, semi-structured interviews with young people with physical disabilities aged 12-18 (n = 11). Data were analyzed using interpretive thematic analysis.
Young people described several ways that their social environments help motivate and support them in their physical activity participation. These include providing: fair and equitable participation beyond physical accommodations; belonging through teamwork; and socially supported independence.
Supportive social environments characterized by equitable participation, a sense of belonging, and opportunities for interdependence, play a critical role in promoting the health and well-being of young people with physical disabilities. These characteristics are important to consider in the design of both integrated and dedicated physical activity programs.
探讨身体残疾的年轻人在社会包容和体育活动方面的经历,以描述支持参与体育活动的社会环境特征。
采用迭代式定性设计,对12至18岁的身体残疾年轻人(n = 11)进行深入的半结构化访谈。使用解释性主题分析法对数据进行分析。
年轻人描述了他们的社会环境在激励和支持他们参与体育活动方面的几种方式。这些方式包括提供:除身体便利设施外的公平和平等参与;通过团队合作获得归属感;以及社会支持的独立性。
以公平参与、归属感和相互依存机会为特征的支持性社会环境,在促进身体残疾年轻人的健康和福祉方面发挥着关键作用。在设计综合和专门的体育活动项目时,考虑这些特征很重要。
