Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 67/5 (septembre-octobre 2013) Titre : Household task participation of children with and without physical disability Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Louise DUNN ; James GARDNER Année de publication : 2013 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Enfant  Handicap  Ménage  Participation  Activités vie quotidienne  Famille  Age  Rôle social Résumé : We examined household task participation patterns of 46 children and youth with and without physical disability (PD) and explored the effects of age on roles of and expectations for these children in household task participation. Children with PD did not differ significantly from those without PD in the number of household tasks they performed; however, they did require more assistance than those without PD. In both groups, younger children performed significantly fewer household tasks and required significantly more help than older children. These findings further support the discriminant validity of the Children Helping Out: Responsibilities, Expectations, and Supports (Dunn, 2004) measure of household task participation and its use with adolescents. Assessing such participation would help caregivers and practitioners more successfully prepare children and youths with PD for independent living. Considering the roles and opportunities for social participation inherent in many household tasks will contribute to the usefulness of examining such participation.
