Abstract:

All persons are subjects of law, but not everyone has the “capacity” to fully exercise them. On this basis, people with disabilities have seen their opportunities for development as human beings limited.Why it that people with disabilities have been historically marginalized by the Law? In this article, the author presents a detailed analysis on the subject, including the legal paradigm change that was the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.<br>Todas las personas somos sujetos de Derecho, perono todos tenemos la “capacidad” para poder ejercerlos plenamente.

Abstract:

The article focuses on a new problem that requires an adequate legal answer that respects the rights of the persons with disabilities: are all persons with disabilities incapacitated for work? This question tries to make a critical assessment of the traditional systems of social security that assumed that any disability led to the end of the productive life. However, that differs completely from the view of the social model of disability that states that disability comes from the social barriers and not from the persons. If disability is not the same as incapacity to work, how and when should

Abstract:

Background: Numerous multidimensional assessment tools have been developed to measure frailty; however, the clinical feasibility of these tools is limited. We previously developed and validated an upper-extremity function (UEF) assessment method that incorporates wearable motion sensors. The purpose of the current study was to: 1) cross-sectionally validate the UEF method in a larger sample in comparison with the Fried index; 2) develop a UEF frailty index to predict frailty categories including non-frail, pre-frail, and frail based on UEF parameters and demographic information, using the Frie

Abstract:

During recent decades, lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) has become the most common indication for spine surgery, a change that coincides with a higher worldwide prevalence of overweight and obesity. Thus, surgical treatment of LSS in the overweight and obese population is common and increasing in scope. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate whether body mass index (BMI) is related to the development of LSS, and whether BMI is linked to outcome after surgery for LSS. We further evaluated whether there are specific experiences of LSS from a patient perspective. Data were obtained for all

Employment could not only have economic benefits, but also improve their social skills and integrate them into mainstream society. Studies pointed out that some problems, such as health, fitness, social communication, and so on, might be easily encountered by workers with disability in work places, which usually limited their working performance. Based on primarily self-reported assessment in the previous studies, which being lack

Most people in South Africa make use of Government hospitals making the results of this research applicable to the general population. Questionnaires like the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) are easy and effective research tools to assess disability from LBP but most of them are developed in English. In South Africa however, many people are often not lit

Abstract:

In 2000 the European Union adopted the Framework Equal Treatment Directive which prohibits discrimination because of a number of grounds including disability. This thesis examines the nature of that protection from discrimination because of disability and considers what contribution the directive may make to achieving the policy objectives of the disability rights movement in Europe. The discussion is based on the text of the directive, policy statements issued by the European Council, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission, academic commentary and decisions of the Europ

Abstract:

People with an intellectual disability have high levels of sedentary behaviour (Temple, Frey, & Stanish, 2006) and health conditions associated with inactivity such as cardiovascular disease (Draheim, 2006) and obesity (Rimmer & Yamaki, 2006). Physical activity has been identified as one of the most successful strategies used to decrease these health risks. Four participants with an intellectual disability were recruited from the Special Olympics Athletic Club and participated in a 9-week strength and aerobic exercise program which consisted of a face-to-face program and an at-home component.

Abstract:

The aim of the study was to determine whether a modified version of the Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) (American Thoracic Society, 2002) could be used to assess aerobic power in adults with intellectual disability. Thirteen adults (7M, 6F), four with Down syndrome; 18-44 years old, with mild or moderate intellectual disability participated in the study. Each participant performed the following: (1) the modified 6MWT twice, with a pacer, along a straight 30-m course in a gymnasium; (2) the graded maximal treadmill test; and (3) a test of leg strength, twice, using a Cybex dynamometer.

There is a need for early diagnosis and follow-up of neck pain to assess a patient’s level of self-rated disability due to the escalating disability burden and compensation costs associated with neck pain. For this reason, disability questionnaires

Abstract:

The doctoral research consists of a comparison between Italy and Spain on the issues of inclusion of children with disabilities. To understand the dynamics of inclusion in both countries, I have chosen to use the tool that best suits the purpose, the Index for Inclusion. It is a tool created by two British psychologists, T. Booth and M. Ainscow. With this tool, they have made it possible to give advice on how to construct an inclusive environment. Field research was conducted amongst classrooms of first and second grade students and fourth and fifth year secondary school students. Additionally

La ricerca si propone di indagare quali sono gli approcci culturali, le politiche gestionali e le strategie operative che rendono inclusiva un’istituzione scolastica tramite un approccio Mixed Methods che ha previsto un disegno composto. Il disegno composto prevede due studi uguali e paralleli, ciascuno formato da 3 sotto-studi. I primi due hanno seguito un disegno sequenziale esplorativo, secondo il modello per lo sviluppo di strumenti e il terzo un disegno convergente parallelo secondo il modello di triangolazione convergente. I due studi paralleli sono stati condotti uno in alcune scuole de
