Abstract:

According to WHO, 16% of the world's population are people with disabilities. Given this high number, disability-friendly tourism can be utilized as a special tourism market. This study aims to analyze the effect of travel constraints on travel intention through travel motivation for people with disabilities in Bandung. Over the past few years, Indonesia has begun to develop disability-friendly tourism infrastructure and services. The theory used in this study is the Theory of Planned Behavior, which has proven effective in shaping the behavioral intentions of tourists. This research was condu

To fulfill the movement needs of people with disabilities, the Yogyakarta City government provides mass public transport, Trans Jogja.

Abstract:

Various charters of rights in Western society recognise a specific right to mobility, but it may actually be difficult to travel freely for some citizens. Indeed, people with disabilities often encounter technical or organisational problems that prevent them from enjoying this right. We believe that ensuring mobility is fundamental for the organisational inclusion of people with disabilities. Since the early 1990s, many legislative provisions have been drafted to create and improve travel possibilities for people with disabilities in Italy. Therefore, after thirty years, it is legitimate to in

Abstract:

Individuals with disabilities encounter numerous challenges in the realm of tourism travel. Various constraints can affect their opportunities to engage in travel, influence their choice of destinations and modes of travel, and shape their overall tourism experiences. Research on tourism for individuals with disabilities has predominantly concentrated on identifying barriers to travel. This paper employs a time-geographical framework to extend beyond this focus, examining how various constraints are negotiated and the resultant outcomes for tourism trips. The study is based on interviews with

Abstract:

This study evaluated the feasibility of supporting independent indoor travel using reduced frequencies of auditory cues with two persons having total blindness and profound intellectual disability. For these persons, who had acquired satisfactory travel performance with cues occurring every 8 sec., the cue frequencies were reduced to one-half or one-third of the original level. Analysis showed that both participants could manage accurate travel under the new cue conditions, even though their travel time (efficiency) seemed negatively affected. Implications of the findings were discussed.

People with disabilities are an underrepresented group in the tourism sector. They face more complex challenges than able-bodied tourists due to various barriers that hinder their participation in tourism.

The study's conceptual framework is derived from the theories of leisure constraints, learned helplessness, and social cognitive theory. The data collection procedure in this study was carrie

Closings lead to a persistent 16 percent decline in the number of disability recipients in surrounding areas, with the largest effects for applicants with moderately severe conditions and low education levels. Disability applications fall by only 10 percent, implying that the closings reduce targeting efficiency based on current eligibility standards. Increase

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction The study country has a disproportionally high burn incidence rate compared to other low- and middle-income countries. Preventable death and disability are common due to poor population-level spatial access to organized burn care, including no organized system of ground or aeromedical transport. Currently, severe burns are referred to a single facility nationwide, often with suboptimal stabilization and/or significant care delay. Therefore, we aimed to identify existing candidate hospitals that would optimize population-level access to acute burn care if burn stabilizatio

Abstract:

Individuals with intellectual disability experience higher rates of mental illness when compared with the general population, and there is a lack of medical and mental health professionals in rural and under-served areas. With the increase in discharge of individuals from institutional settings back to their home communities into the least restrictive environments, there are more patients with complex needs being added to the schedules of physicians in the outpatient delivery care system. Patients with disabilities may not travel well or tolerate changes in routine so may not have access to ps

Abstract: Alma Karlin is considered the most famous female Austrian travel writer of the 1920s and 1930s. On her typewriter 'Erika', she documented her eight-anda-half-year global journey before returning home to Cilli/Celje in present-day Slovenia. This article considers Alma Karlin's autobiography Ein Mensch wird and excerpts from the first volume of her travel trilogy Einsame Weltreise as examples of her self-perception as a solitary female traveller. The analysis takes into consideration Annegret Pelz's work on the relationship between travel literature and female autobiographical writing

Abstract:

This study explored how disability, mobility, social and leisure engagement, and travel behavior influence older people’s life satisfaction. The study used the 2013 Disability and Use of Time data for people ages 50 years and older, many of whom reported physical impairments. The study developed a model that related life satisfaction with various time use, disability, and mobility variables. Summary statistics of time use showed that as people aged, they spent more time on solitary, passive leisure activities; social face-to-face time did not seem to change very much.

Abstract:

We investigated the effectiveness and efficiency of a four-week myofeedback-based teletreatment service in subjects with non-specific neck and shoulder pain. Subjects were recruited in Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands and randomly allocated to the intervention or conventional care. Subjects in the intervention group received four weeks of myofeedback training. Pain intensity and disability were evaluated by questionnaires at baseline, immediately after four weeks of treatment and at follow-up 3 months later. To investigate efficiency, the time-investment of both therapists and patients wer

This paper presents a software module for real-timeauralization that was used to recreate the acoustic perceptionproduced by a sound obstacle in virtual and real environments.This module fulfills the function of inserting, in any audio signal,a three-dimensional positioning effect that allows the listenerto determine the location of a sound source within the chosentest environment. This effect was achieved with a processingtechnique called segmented convolution and several functionscontained in a database of head related impulse responses(HRIRs).
