Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the level of participation in leisure time physical activity (LTPA) of adolescents and adults with cerebral palsy (CP).

Material and Method: 35 individuals with CP over the age of 16 (22.6 ± 5.5 years) were included in study. A questionnaire has been prepared by researchers to investigate participation of individuals in LTPA. Individuals were asked whether they did any LTPA. If so, the type, frequency, intensity, duration were questioned.

Results: It was determined 91.4% of individuals were interested in some form of LTPA and they were interested in 8 activities (home exercises, walking, swimming, fitness, exercise bike, bowling, cycling and football) out of 14 activities offered to them, 74.2% of them do this activity once a week, and 65.7% of them want to get interested new activities but couldn’t perform due to various barriers.

Discussion: It was demonstrated that diversity and frequency of activities in adolescents and adults with CP were inadequate and interventions aimed at increasing community participation, and diversity and frequency of LTPA in adolescent and adult CP patients are needed.

Leisure Time Physical Activity in Adolescents and Adults with Cerebral Palsy

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışma adölesan ve erişkin serebral palsili (SP) bireylerin serbest zaman fiziksel aktivitelerine (SZFA) katılım düzeyini araştırmayı planlandı.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya 16 yaşından büyük (22.6 ± 5.5 yaşında) 35 SP’li birey dahil edildi. Araştırmacılar tarafından bireylerin SZFA'ya katılımını araştırmak için bir anket hazırlandı. Bireylere SZFA yapıp yapmadıkları soruldu. Eğer yapıyorlarsa tipi, frekansı, yoğunluğu, süresi sorgulandı.

Sonuçlar: Bireylerin % 91.4'ünün bir çeşit SZFA ile ilgilendikleri ve kendilerine sunulan 14 faaliyetten 8'i (ev egzersizleri, yürüyüş, yüzme, fitness, egzersiz bisikleti, bowling, bisiklet ve futbol) ile ilgilendikleri, %74,2’sinin bu aktiviteyi haftada bir yaptığı, %65,7’sinin ilgilenmek istedikleri yeni aktiviteler olduğu ancak çeşitli engeller nedeniyle gerçekleştiremedikleri belirlenmiştir.

Tartışma: Adölesan ve erişkin SP'li bireylerde SZFA'ların çeşitliliği ve sıklığının yetersiz olduğu ve bu bireylerde toplumsal katılımı, ve SZFA çeşitlilik ve sıklığını artırmaya yönelik müdahalelerin gerekli olduğu gösterilmiştir.
