Usabilidade e estratégias de divulgação de uma rede social virtual para pessoas com deficiência

“…Um dos fatores que influenciam na melhora da funcionalidade e satisfação de vida para as PcD, é a participação social e conexão com seus pares. Nesse contexto, estudos científicos, demostraram que o uso da internet e das RSV por PcD, induz a conexão entre pares, a participação social em ambientes online que transcende para ambientes offline, empodera esta PcD por meio das informações adquiridas e experiências compartilhadas que refletem diretamente nos níveis de satisfação de vida (DINIZ;BARBOSA;SANTOS, 2009; GUR; RIMMERMAN, 2017;REDMOND;RICHARDSON, 2017) Diante disso a RSV, aplicada em estratégias de intervenção à distância, tornou-se uma possibilidade para pesquisadores e organizações de saúde, que investem em pesquisas e destinam esforços para corresponder, por meio de conteúdos relevantes, o aumento desses acessos em busca por informações de saúde (PELOSI, 2008;CASTRO et al, 2013;CRISTANCHO-LACROIX et al, 2013). Assim, A RSVD foi lançada em 2017, com propósito de promover redes de apoio social e informacional, por meio de acesso à conteúdos pautados em evidências cientificas, moderadas por profissionais.…”
