“…It is expected of MS patients as well as other people to spend most of their lives with others. Going to a party, represents the most common event of social life, which has also been mentioned in several studies [31][32][33][34][35][36].…”

Objectives: Leisure is a domain of life that is very important, particularly for people with neurological disorders. However, due to social and cultural differences, leisure activities have not been studied extensively. The aim of this study is to determine the different factors influencing leisure activities among people afflicted with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) within the framework of Iranian culture. Methods:We used two independent qualitative studies: 1) interviews conducted with 11 professional that related to these patients and 2) open-ended questionnaires that were completed by 49 patients with MS. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed on the data obtained.Results: Six factors were extracted from the analyses on each of the two studies: social, individual, physical, art-cultural, spiritual/religious and educational. Discussion: Our results suggest that the leisure activities of the MS patients are influenced by six factors. We suggest that studies concerning leisure activities of Iranian MS patients should consider these factors.

“…In a small study (n = 4), it was found that participants mostly engaged in sedentary, passive activities, including spending 23% of their time "doing nothing" (Sparrow & Sharp, 1991). In a Spanish study with 237 adults with ID, the most common recreational activities at home were watching TV, resting, and listening to music with low levels of participation in physical activities (Badia, Orgaz, Verdugo, & Ullán, 2013).…”

“…These elements are multifactorial and form a whole to be considered when addressing the inclusion of people with disabilities in leisure. According to Longo, Badia and Orgaz (2013), personal and environmental factors may have a greater impact on youth participation than only the family environment. This can be explained by the fact that the disability is a result of interrelations between the person and their environment (societal, social environment).…”

Because youth with disabilities participate less in physical activity than young people without disabilities and that schools play an important role in adopting a healthy lifestyle, it is important to deepen our understanding of the elements that foster participation of young people with disabilities in physical activity. The objective of this research is twofold: 1) establish the determinants of participation of youth with disabilities in physical education according to practitioners and 2) document the effects of an initiation and competition program for youth with disabilities on their physical activity. The collection of data using semi-structured interviews was conducted in two phases. The first, among teachers and school-based practitioners (n = 18), aimed to understand their experiences relating to the adoption of healthy lifestyles among their students with disabilities. As for the second, practitioners (n = 12) were interviewed during organized adapted sporting events. Analysis of the interviews shows two categories of determinants, namely determinants relating to school (winning conditions of the environment, the importance of extracurricular activities, and obstacles) as well as determinants relating to the professional competence of teachers (the role of teachers, collaboration between professionals, the benefits of sport and physical activity and obstacles encountered).Keywords: adapted physical education, youth with disability, schools, physical educators Sport Science Review, vol. XXV, no. 3-4, 2016, 135 -158 DOI: 10.1515/ssr-2016 IntroductionPhysical inactivity affects the whole population, including young people. Indeed, in Canada, only 7% of young people between the ages of 10 and 16 meet the minimum daily requirements of 60 minutes of physical activity (Active Healthy Kids Canada, 2012). This trend is even more prevalent among young people with disabilities (Badia, Orgaz, Verdugo & Ullan, 2013;Buttimer and Tierney, 2005; Shikado-Thomas, Majnemer, Law & Lach, 2008). Young people with disabilities are less active than young people without disabilities (Pittet, Berchtold, Akré, Michaud & Suris, 2009;Solish, Perry & Minnes, 2010).According to Anderson and Heyne (2010), adopting a healthy lifestyle is a greater challenge for young people with disabilities. A more sedentary lifestyle among these young people partially explains this problem (Abeysekara, Turchi & O'Neil, 2014). Similarly, a low family income hinders access to recreational activities and as a result, the adoption of a healthy lifestyle (Bedell et al., 2013). Youth with disabilities incur greater risks of developing health problems such as obesity and chronic diseases including hypertension and diabetes (Anderson & Heyne, 2010;Riley, Rimmer, Schiller & Wang, 2008;Rimmer, Rowland, Yamaki, 2007). In fact, the prevalence of overweight and obesity is two to three times higher among those with disabilities than other young people (Badia, Orgaz, Verdugo & Ullan, 2013). Leisure participation has many benefits for people with disabilities...
