This study examined the participation patterns of Korean children with and without disabilities at home, finding that caregivers of children with disabilities desired more changes in their children's participation and identified physical, cognitive, and social demands, as well as supplies and money, as hindrances to their participation.
Purpose To identify the participation patterns of Korean children with and without disabilities at home, and the environmental factors affecting their participation. Materials and methods The Korean Participation and Environment Measure for Children and Youth were applied to 184 caregivers of children aged 5 to 13 years in South Korea. To explore home participation patterns and environmental factors at the item level, analysis of covariance, Pearson's chi-square tests, and radar plots were used. Results The largest group differences in participation frequency were in school preparation and homework and those at involvement level were in indoor play and games, getting together with other people, school preparation, and homework. More caregivers of children with disabilities desired changes in their children's participation in all activities. They also perceived that physical, cognitive, and social demands of typical home activities, supplies, and money hindered children's home participation. Conclusions The findings provide information about how Korean children participated in home-based activities, whether their caregivers desired changes in their participation, and what environmental factors impede their home participation. These can help service providers understand the interaction between participation and environmental factors and offer insight into where their service goals should be focused for the successful participation of children with disabilities at home.
