The purpose of this study was to analyze parent perceptions of an aquatic and land activity program as an early participation opportunity. Participants enrolled in Early Intervention were recruited for a 1x/week exercise program for 8 weeks. The first four weeks were held in a pool, followed by four weeks on land. Parent perceptions were measured through semi-structured interviews. The IRP-15 was also utilized to measure social validity. Ten children, aged 15 months to 4 years, participated. Scores of the IRP-15 were above the cut-score for an acceptable intervention for both programs; however, the results of this study suggested that parents of children with disabilities preferred aquatic exercise to traditional land-based activity. The community-based activities described provided the young children with disabilities and their families a way to engage in activities with peers of similar abilities as well as gain separation from their families, which is fundamental for their growth and independence. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: questionnaire/scale research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
