Study Notes
Adapted Physical Activity (APA)
- Definition: An attitude and philosophy (believing component) + a service delivery system (doing component) + a cross-disciplinary body of knowledge
- Focus: individual differences, lifespan approach, process of advocacy, promotion of independence and self-determination
APA Paradigms
-
- Facility Based Services (early 1900s): people with disabilities were believed to be a menace, should be isolated, and had different needs from the typical population
- Resulted in institutions, residential programs, special schools, and education based on labels
-
- Services Based (1950-1960s): public outcry led to a shift towards integration, mainstreaming, and de-institutionalization
- Physical activity opportunities were about assistance, not correcting or ignoring
-
- Supports Based (1970s-21st century): made use of natural, human, or technical supports to assist with inclusion
- Implemented teaching assistants/aides, peer support, use of computers, and individualized physical activity plans
-
- Empowerment (21st century): a philosophy that everyone belongs, contributes, and develops
- Focus on self-determination, personal power, and control
-
- Personal Coherence (Rossow-Kimball & Goodwin, 2018): rooted in a Strengths Perspective, suggests that people experiencing disability are experts in their own lives
- Focus on talents, resourcefulness, possibility, meaningful history, and strengths
Adaptation Theory
- Ernst Kiphard (1983): adaptation is a reciprocal process, holistic, age-appropriate, and person-centered
- Asserts that environmental variables create barriers and risks when interacting with personal variables in a goal-oriented physical education setting
- Teacher's role: help students find or create the best situational match of all interacting variables
APA Programs
- Same objectives as regular physical activity programs, but with adjustments to meet the needs and abilities of all participants
- May be integrated or segregated and involve groups or individuals
- Goals: motor, cognitive, affective, and social
APE/APA Model
- Assess movement needs
- Select functional goal (functional, top-down approach)
- Specify objectives
- Assess, prioritize, and manage variables
- Evaluate program and plan change### International Classification of Functioning, Disability & Health
- Recognizes that every human being can experience a decrement in health, leading to some degree of disability
- Shifts focus from cause to impact, considering social aspects of disability and environmental factors affecting functioning
- Includes contextual and environmental perspectives, highlighting that adapting activities to minimize limitations can eliminate disability
Models of Categorizing Disability
- Three models:
- ICF (International Classification of Functioning, Disability & Health)
- 6 Elemental Aspects highlighted in each model
ICF (International Classification of Functioning, Disability & Health)
- Used to measure health status of countries
- Clinical and epidemiological use: functional status assessment, goal setting, treatment planning, and monitoring
- Social policy use: anti-discrimination law, disability evaluation
- Research use: impact, intervention, and application
Strengths Perspective
- An alternative to the dominant Medical Model Perspective
- Focuses on strengths, interests, and competences
- Includes discovering strengths by looking around, listening to stories, and finding signs of strength, interests, hopes, and visions
- Essential questions: survival, support, exception, possibility, and esteem questions
Discovering Strengths
- Look for interests, talents, and competences
- Go beyond standard assessment protocols and listen to stories
- Identify sources of strength, support, and guidance
