“…Twelve studies used the term 'participation', one study the term 'engagement', 33 11 studies used both terms interchangeably, and one study used neither word. 22 Six studies that did not explicitly define participation did refer to the ICF, 2 and therefore could be considered to have inferred a definition of the construct of participation. 21,24,32,35,39,43 Only four studies provided an explicit definition of participation or engagement:…”

ICFInternational Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health QOL Quality of life PODCI Pediatric Outcomes Data Collection Instrument RCT Randomized controlled trial AIM Improving participation of children with disabilities is a priority; however, the participation construct lacks clarity. This systematic review investigated how researchers defined 'participation' and the language used in participation intervention research.METHOD Nine health and education databases were searched for intervention studies of children with disabilities that included a participation outcome. Quantitative data were extracted using a customized form, and participation text data were extracted verbatim. Themes were derived using a thematic coding approach. These participation themes were applied to the outcome measures used in the included studies to compare participation language with the methods used to quantify participation changes. RESULTSOf the 2257 articles retrieved, 25 were included in this review. Five participation themes and nine subthemes were developed. Two themes, attendance and involvement, were directly related to the participation construct. Three additional themes described related concepts: preferences, activity competence, and sense of self.INTERPRETATION Attendance and involvement seem to describe the essence of the participation concept. The related themes may provide important avenues to enhance participation outcomes. This review highlighted the need for researchers to define the construct under investigation clearly and select measures carefully, as measurement choice is the mechanism through which the concept is operationalized in research.The publication of the World Health Organization's International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) has resulted in an intensification of international interest in 'participation' as the ultimate health outcome. 1,2 The ICF defines participation as 'involvement in a life situation' 2 participation restriction is defined as 'problems an individual may experience in involvement in life situations'.2 Because there is no universal acceptance of the definition of participation, a discourse in the literature has developed about how to operationalize the concept. 3,4 This is critical, because without clarity about the concept, defining outcome goals and developing scales and measures to assess participation outcomes will remain open to question as to whether the measures are fit for purpose.One part of the complexity of the conceptual issue is the fact that the World Health Organization did not clearly distinguish between activity and participation within their classification system, offering authors four methods for determining when participation rather than activity was being classified.1,2 This lack of distinction provides ample opportunity for varied interpretations of the concept under investigation and hence varied approaches to measurement, 5 leading to imprecision and confusion in what is found and reported.Several authors describe particip...

“…Some theater-based programs use theatrical techniques as a form of treatment for children with ASD [24][25][26]. For example, studies we have conducted have shown that SENSE Theatre ® , a theatrical intervention program in which youth with ASD learn a variety of acting techniques with peer actors who model communication and behavioral skills, contributes to significant changes in participants' social competence, communication, cognition, and interaction skills [27][28][29][30].…”

Autism, Art, and Accessibility to Theater

Art has the ability to entertain and educate about many vital aspects of the human experience. Recently, innovative endeavors are providing greater accessibility to theatrical productions for people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), prompting ethical questions about how accommodations to provide access to art and culture should be made, and for whom. This article uses an attributional model of stigma to explain potential differences in knowledge, attitudes, and behavior toward people with mental illness. This social cognitive model also provides clues about how to spur social change through translational education, familiarization, and advocacy to permit greater access to art for people with disabilities.

Social and communication behaviors are often a focus of instruction for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). A theatre rehearsal and production process is challenging and joyful work that nurtures the development of social and language skills. This study evaluated and described social and language behaviors for students with ASD both before and after a 10-week theatre experience. The results indicated that, when compared with a control group, the students with theatre experiences had significant and positive changes in the development of social and language skills. Most particularly, these students had significant improvement in Social Responsiveness, acknowledgement of the Perspective of Others, and Participation and Cooperation. The theatre experiences led to positive changes in social and communication behaviors for students with ASD.
