Abstract(s)
Apesar do exercício físico ser um bom indicador para a promoção da saúde, a população com dificuldade intelectual e desenvolvimental tende a apresentar elevados níveis de inatividade física que influenciam a sua aptidão física, saúde e qualidade de vida. Neste sentido, o presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar a aptidão física funcional e a QdV, assim como as associações entre estas mesmas, de uma amostra de população com DID. Foram avaliados 37 indivíduos com DID (42,54± 11,12 anos), através dos testes levantar e sentar na cadeira, timed up and go, caminhar durante 6 minutos, com o propósito de averiguar a aptidão física e a Escala Pessoal de Resultados para mensurar o bem-estar físico. Foram aplicadas correlações de pearson e verificou-se a correlação entre o bem-estar físico e os testes de levantar e sentar e caminhar 6 minutos. Os resultados sugerem uma associação entre as capacidades funcionais medidas através dos testes e o bem-estar físico, sugerindo que a promoção destas competências pode influenciar positivamente o bem-estar físico da amostra utilizada.
Despite physical exercise is a good indicator of health promotion, the population with intellectual and developmental disabilities tends to have high levels of physical inactivity that influence their physical fitness, health, and quality of life (QoL). The present study aimed to analyse the functional physical fitness and QoL, as well as the associations between them, of a sample of the population with IDD. Thirty-seven individuals (42,54± 11,12 years) with IDD were evaluated through the tests standing up and sitting on a chair, timed up and go and walking for 6 minutes, with the purpose of analysing physical fitness and the Personal Outcome Scale (POS) to measure physical well-being. Pearson’s correlations were applied and the correlation between physical well-being and the tests stand up and sit down and walk for 6 minutes was verified. The results indicate an association between functional skills measured through the tests and physical well-being, suggesting that the promotion of these skills can positively influence the physical well being of the sample used
