Earlier studies show that to gain more understanding of the concept of social inclusion, the views and experiences of people with intellectual disabilities are needed. The aim of this study was to investigate their perspective on neighbourhood social inclusion from an ecological point of view.
We carried out a photovoice study with 18 people with intellectual disabilities in three neighbourhoods in the Netherlands. Participants took photographs in their neighbourhood they considered relevant, and these photographs were discussed during an interview.
Six themes emerged from qualitative analysis: attractiveness of the neighbourhood, social contacts in the neighbourhood, activities in the neighbourhood, social roles in the neighbourhood, independence and public familiarity.
As regards neighbourhood social inclusion, participants were often focused on small and informal activities and situations. Public familiarity proved very important. Framing the concept of neighbourhood social inclusion within an ecological approach may help to better understand processes of social inclusion.
早期研究表明,为了更深入理解社会包容的概念,需要了解智障人士的观点和经历。本研究的目的是从生态角度调查他们对邻里社会包容的看法。
我们在荷兰的三个社区对18名智障人士开展了一项摄影声音研究。参与者拍摄了他们认为相关的社区照片,并在访谈中对这些照片进行了讨论。
定性分析得出了六个主题:社区的吸引力、社区中的社交联系、社区中的活动、社区中的社会角色、独立性和公众熟悉度。
在邻里社会包容方面,参与者通常关注小型和非正式的活动及情况。公众熟悉度被证明非常重要。在生态方法中构建邻里社会包容的概念可能有助于更好地理解社会包容的过程。
