“…Previous studies have highlighted the impact that both personal and environmental factors have on determining the activity participation patterns and preferences of typically developing children (Engel-Yeger et al, 2007;Engel-Yeger & Jarus, 2008). In the present study, significant differences between boys and girls were found in 3 of the 10 activity CAPE/PAC participation and preference scales.…”

“…Although previous research has provided some knowledge and understanding into the effect of the environment on the activity participation of children, much of this information has been established overseas and does not directly relate to the activity participation of Australian children (Engel-Yeger, Jarus, & Law, 2007). Australia is made up of three different primary geographic locations: urban, rural, and remote.…”

It is important for therapists to be knowledgeable about the impact of the environment on children's participation patterns and activity preferences. This study investigated the activity preference and participation among school-age children living in urban and rural locations. The participation patterns and preferences for activities of 58 typically developing children (32 males and 26 females; response rate of 38.7%) aged 8-12 years were assessed across both urban (n = 24) and rural (n = 34) regions of southwest Victoria, Australia. The participation patterns and preferences for activities were assessed using the Children's Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment and Preferences for Activities of Children (CAPE/PAC). An independent samples t-test was used to determine whether significant differences existed for the CAPE/PAC scores for urban and rurally based children as well as boys and girls. Significant differences were found between the scores of children living in urban and rural areas on the following subscales: CAPE Diversity, CAPE Intensity, CAPE Whom, CAPE Where, PAC Physical Preference, and PAC Social Preference. A significant difference for rural and urban groups was found on the following CAPE activity types: Recreation Diversity, Recreation Intensity, Social Diversity, Social Intensity, Self-Improvement Diversity, and Self-Improvement Intensity. Rurally based children were engaged in a broader range of activities and did so more frequently than urban children. Differences in gender were identified with girls preferring to participate in social and skill-based activities and being more likely to participate with friends or people outside their home. However, there were no significant differences in the participation patterns of boys and girls. Physical, social, and structural aspects of the location where a child lives impact the frequency, type of activities, and whom a child participates with most frequently in out-of-school activities. The activity participation of boys and girls in Australia has become quite similar.

“…In Israel, the tool was translated into Hebrew and Arabic. Previous studies have been performed with the CAPE in Israel, demonstrating that it is sensitive in distinguishing between different cultures (Engel-Yeger et al, 2007), between typical populations and distinguishing children with cerebral palsy (CP) (EngelYeger et al, 2009).…”

“…Participation and the factors that infl uence it create a complex set of relationships (Heah et al, 2007;King et al, 2006;Law et al, 2004). Culture, family, health status and contextual factors have been identifi ed as some of the main determinants of children's participation (Engel-Yeger et al, 2007;Law, 2002;King et al, 2003;Larson and Verma, 1999;Brown and Gordon, 1987).…”

Culturally sensitive and valid assessments of participation in occupations are needed for Spanish-speaking children to enhance services offered to this population. The purpose of this study was to assess the validity and reliability of the newly developed Spanish version of the Children's Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment and Preferences for Activities of Children, the Evaluación de Participacion y Disfrute de los Niños y Preferencias de las Actividades de los Niños (EPDN/PAN). The sample included 249 children with and without disabilities, aged 6 to 15 years. Statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) in the participation of children with disabilities and children without disabilities, and between younger and older children were found. No statistical significant differences were found between males and females in the dimensions of participation assessed. Adequate internal consistency (0.70-0.92) was found for the PAN scale and the Overall and Informal domain scores of the EPDN-Intensity scale. Further study is needed to evaluate the formal domain scale and gender differences by activity types.
