Amaç: Bu çalışmada, demografik özelliklerine göre engelli bireylerin toplumsal katılım ve çevre algılarının karşılaştırılması amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma, Hacettepe Üniversitesi Ergoterapi Bölümünde takip edilen kronik engelli bireyler ile gerçekleştirildi. Çalışmaya dâhil edilen 134 engelli bireye (87'si erkek, 47'si kadın) sosyodemografik bilgi formu, Çevre Kalite Ölçeği-Kısa Form ve Dünya Sağlık Örgütü-Yetiyitimi Değerlendirme Çizelgesi- II uygulandı. Veriler gruplar arası karşılaştırma yöntemlerinden bağımsız gruplar Student t, ANOVA ve Kruskall-Wallis testleri ile analiz edildi. Gruplar arası farklar Bonferroni ve Mann-Whitney U testleri ile analiz edildi. Bulgular: Engelli bireylerin demografik özelliklerine göre toplumsal katılımı ve çevresel algılarının karşılaştırıldığı bu çalışmada, cinsiyet (p=0,001) ve medeni durumun (p=0,043) çevresel algılarını; yardımcı cihaz kullanımı (p=0,001) ve eğitim düzeyinin (p=0,011) toplumsal katılımlarını; gelir durumu (sırasıyla p=0,001; p=0,001; p=0,041) ve engel farklılıklarının ise (p=0,001; p=0,011; p=0,005; p<0,001) hem toplumsal katılım hem de çevresel algılarını olumsuz etkilediği bulundu. Sonuç: Engelli bireylerin sahip oldukları bazı demografik özelliklere göre (cinsiyet, medeni durum, yardımcı cihaz kullanımı, eğitim, gelir durumu ve engel durumu) toplumsal katılım ve/veya çevresel algılarının olumsuz yönde farklılıklara neden olduğu gösterildi. Bu çalışma, engelli bireyler için toplumsal katılım, çevresel adaptasyon müdahalesi planlarken, sağlık profesyonellerinin demografik değişkenlere göre bireysel farklılıkları göz önüne alması ve birey merkezli müdahale planı oluşturmasının önemini gösterdi.

Objective: In this study, it was aimed to compare the community participation and environmental perceptions of people with disabilities according to their demographic factors. Material and Methods: The study was carried out with chronically people with disabilities followed in Hacettepe University Occupational Therapy Department. Sociodemographic information form, Measure of Quality of the Environments-Short Form and World Health Organization-Disability Assessment Schedule-II were applied to 134 people of disabilities (87 men, 47 women) included in the study. Data were analyzed with independent Student's t, ANOVA and Kruskall-Wallis tests for inter-group comparison methods. Differences between groups were analyzed with the Bonferroni and Mann-Whitney U tests. Results: In this study, in which the community participation and environmental perceptions of people with disabilities were compared according to their demographic characteristics, gender (p=0.001) and marital status (p=0.043) were found to decrease environmental perceptions; assistive device use (p=0.001) and education level (p=0.011) were found to decrease community participation; income status (respectively, p=0.001; p=0.001; p=0.041) and disability status (p=0.001; p=0.011; p=0.005; p<0.001) were found to decrease both community participation and environmental perceptions. Conclusion: It has been shown that social participation and/or environmental perceptions of people with disabilities cause negative differences according to some demographic characteristics (gender, marital status, use of walking aids, educational status, income status and disability status). This study showed the importance of health professionals considering individual differences according to demographic factors and creating a client-centered intervention plan when planning community participation and environmental adaptation interventions for people with disabilities.
