The extent and nature of community activities of families of children with disabilities in comparison with their nondisabled peers were examined. Parents of 82 children with disabilities and 132 children without disabilities, ages 2 through 5 years, completed a Demographic Questionnaire, Community Activities Questionnaire (CAQ), and Parent Experience Survey (PES). The CAQ assessed frequency of child participation in age-appropriate community activities, and the PES was a retrospective self-evaluation by parents of the experience of introducing the child to common community settings. Both groups of parents reported highly similar experiences when shopping with their children, although parents of children with disabilities reported more fear and risk associated with public settings. Overall, parents of children with disabilities reported participation in fewer community activities than parents of children without disabilities. This difference was largely accounted for by a lower level of participation by families having children with disabilities in a subset of activities that reflect opportunities for family enrichment.
研究了残疾儿童家庭与非残疾同龄人家庭社区活动的范围和性质。82名2至5岁残疾儿童的父母和132名非残疾儿童的父母完成了一份人口统计问卷、社区活动问卷（CAQ）和家长体验调查（PES）。CAQ评估了儿童参与适合其年龄的社区活动的频率，PES是家长对带孩子进入常见社区场所体验的回顾性自我评估。两组家长在与孩子购物时报告的经历高度相似，尽管残疾儿童的家长报告称在公共场所会有更多恐惧和风险。总体而言，残疾儿童的家长报告参与的社区活动比非残疾儿童的家长少。这种差异在很大程度上是由于有残疾儿童的家庭在反映家庭充实机会的一部分活动中的参与程度较低。
