The present study investigates whether sport activities involving children with a disability can reduce negative attitudes towards disability in children without disability. We compared the effect of being schoolmate or member of the same football team whereby a child with disability was member of the class/team or not. This lead to four groups that were assessed both at the beginning and at the end of the school year. Two measures were collected: an ad-hoc questionnaire and an Implicit Association Test. The two assessments were designed to measure explicit and implicit attitudes towards children with disabilities. Results suggested that sport activities over one school year reduced more (p < .001) the implicit negative attitude towards disability (Mean = -.17, sd = .10) than the contact with the classmate in the school context (Mean = -.03, sd = .14), possibly due to their team building characteristic.
本研究调查了涉及残疾儿童的体育活动是否能减少非残疾儿童对残疾的负面态度。我们比较了成为同学或同一足球队队员（其中残疾儿童是班级/团队成员或不是）的效果。这产生了四组，在学年开始和结束时都进行了评估。收集了两项指标：一份特制问卷和一项内隐联想测验。这两项评估旨在测量对残疾儿童的显性和隐性态度。结果表明，一学年的体育活动比在学校环境中与同学接触更能减少（p < .001）对残疾的隐性负面态度（均值 = -.17，标准差 = .10），可能是由于其团队建设的特点（均值 = -.03，标准差 = .14）。
