“…Almost two-thirds (64%) of the participants applied for a tricycle during a rehabilitation stay. Researchers have found increased physical functioning for adults one year after such a rehabilitation stay (Preede et al, 2015;Skatteboe et al, 2016). However, the amount of physical activity did not improve correspondingly (Skatteboe et al, 2016).…”

People with disabilities are less active than people without disabilities, and many do not reach the recommended amount of moderate intensity physical activity. This study aimed to investigate whether people with disabilities who acquired an individually adapted tricycle became more physically active, and to map which factors they reported as important for using their tricycle. People with disabilities applying for an adapted leg-driven tricycle participated in this observational study. ActiGraph GT3x accelerometer was worn for 7 days before and after acquiring the adapted tricycle (pre-and post-test). An open-ended question, in a questionnaire described factors important for tricycle use. Forty-five participants were included, aged 5 to 79 years (Mean = 32.3 years, SD = 22.7) with a large variety of complex disabilities, most with mobility impairments and some with intellectual disability. No significant change in activity level from pre-to posttest was found. However, individual differences were large. Reported reasons for not using the tricycle were bad weather conditions, pain when or after cycling, and insecurity. Reasons for using the tricycle were reported to be increased mobility, joy, and the feeling of freedom. To identify modifiable facilitators and barriers for using an individually adapted tricycle is crucial for regular use.

“…Particularly in sports, motivation plays a crucial role in fostering active participation and continuity [11]. Therefore, developing motivational strategies, especially tailored for disabled athletes, and providing ongoing support for these strategies is essential [12]. Motivation can stem from both internal and external sources, with the possibility of experiencing demotivation as well.…”

Background and Study Aim. Sports have significant effects on individuals of all ages and levels, particularly for those with disabilities. These effects are seen in terms of self-expression and competence skills. The aim of this study was to measure the motivation levels of disabled athletes in their participation in sports. Material and Methods. The study involved 151 voluntary participants. The 'Motivation Scale for Participation in Sports for Disabled Individuals' was utilized. Independent t-tests and One-Way ANOVA multiple comparison tests were employed to compare differences between two independent groups and determine variations between variables. Results. Significant differences were found in the motivation levels of disabled individuals in terms of gender, disability status, nationality, type of sport, and social status factors. Female participants were found to have higher levels of both internal and external motivation compared to males. It was determined that the internal motivation of individuals with hearing impairments is higher than those with visual and intellectual disabilities. Additionally, the external motivation levels of individuals with physical, visual, and hearing impairments are higher than those with intellectual disabilities. National athletes have been found to have high levels of external motivation. Furthermore, there is a significant difference in the internal and external motivations of individual sports participants compared to those participating in team sports. No significant differences were found in the duration of participants' athletic careers. Individuals who gained social status through sports were found to have high levels of external motivation. Conclusions. Among the positive effects of sports in human life, it is observed that there are many positive values that sports bring to individuals. This includes the internal and external motivation it provides. Sports have significant effects on self-expression and self-sufficiency skills for individuals of all ages and levels, especially for individuals with disabilities. In this context, the participation of disabled individuals in sports becomes crucial in terms of their personal development and facilitating their lives, both physiologically, psychologically, and sociologically.

“…Healthy individuals and individuals with disabilities (Trost, Owen, Bauman, Sallis & Brown, 2002) need motivation to be active in terms of sports (Deans, Burns, Mcgarry, Murray, & Mutrie, 2012;Buffart Et Al., 2009). Although motivation has been cited as a necessary factor for maintaining physical activity in persons with disabilities (Skatteboe, et al, 2016), studies have focused more on examining motivation within competitive sports (Chantal, Guay, Dobreva-Martinova & Vallerand, 1996;Rogers, Morris, & Moore, 2008). However, first of all, differences in motivation between individuals who do sports and those who do not should be determined and whether they affect their lives should be examined.…”

In this study, it has been tried to determine the motivation of participation in sports and the effects of sports on their lifestyles of different physically disabled individuals who do sports and those who do not, and the differences between the types of disabilities were examined. A total of 732 physically disabled individuals including 327 people who do sports and 405 people who do not do sports were included in the study. Personal Information Form, Physical Activity Participation Motivation Scale (PAPMS) and the Effect of Sports on Life Skills Scale (SLSS) were used as data collection tools. There is a statistically significant difference between those who do sports and those who do not in total and all sub-parameters in PAPMS and SLSS (p <0.05). When the total scores and sub-dimensions of the participants are examined, there is a positive correlation between PAPMS and SLSS (p <0.05). When the responses of the participants to FAPMS and SLSS are compared according to the type of disability, there is a statistically significant difference between those who do sports and those who do not in the total and sub-dimensions of Orthopedic, Visually and hearing impaired individuals (p <0.05). As a result, it shows that sports have a positive role in the motivation of participating in physical activities and contribute to life skills on disabled individuals who do sports. It is thought that sports will have a positive effect not only on their participation in physical activities, but also in many cognitive learning processes due to the increase in motivation of people with disabilities and help the disabled person to become more active and accepted in the society.

Abstract: Rehabilitation based on adapted physical activity is associated with improvement in autonomous motivation. However, improvement in motivation was not related to short- or long-term effects on physical activity.
