“…In other studies involving different populations of adolescents who had no disabilities, it was found that the values for physical domain are higher, which is a different outcome in relation to the current study, which involved adolescents who had physical limitations.

Como esse domínio engloba itens como presença de dor ou desconforto, dependência de medicação, satisfação com o sono, capacidade para o trabalho e atividades diárias, entre outros, espera-se que os escores encontrados sofram alguma interferência decorrente do fato de esses adolescentes possuírem um tipo de deficiência.…”
