Barriers to and facilitators of sports participation for people with physical disabilities: A systematic review

Abstract: Most people with physical disabilities do not participate in sports regularly, which could increase the chances of developing secondary health conditions.

“…Although several studies have been conducted to examine psychosocial factors that influence whether a person with a disability chooses to try a sport (Jaarsma, Dijkstra, Geertzen, & Dekker, 2014;Wu & Williams, 2001), surprisingly little research has examined psychosocial factors that distinguish athletes competing at higher versus lower levels. Such knowledge would be valuable to disability sport organizations.…”

“…No presente estudo, encontramos que todos os atletas apresentaram o domínio "meio ambiente" com menor escore quando comparado com os domínios físico, relações sociais e psicológico, o que também foi encontrado em outros estudos com pessoas com lesão medular 27 , em pessoas com diversas deficiências físicas 15 e em atletas paralímpicos das modalidades de atletismo e natação 5 . Muitas pessoas com DF não participam de esporte regularmente por falta de oportunidades, dificuldades com a acessibilidade e transportes 28 . Pessoas com DV relatam que a principal barreira ambiental para a prática esportiva é o transporte e a principal barreira pessoal é a dependência de outras pessoas 29 .…”
