Filter by:The aim of this study is to examine the activity participation levels of Down syndrome(DS) children and the restrictive or supportive factors affecting their participation levels and to investigate their effects on quality of life. 35 children diagnosed with DS by a pediatric neurologist and 35 typically developing children are planned to be included in this study. Sociodemographic data of typically developing and DS children who agreed to participate in the study and their families will be questioned. Activity (Gross Motor Function Measurement-GMFM-88) , participation and the effect of the environment on participation (Participation and Environment Measure for Children and Youth-PEM-CY ), reflection of motor development levels to functions in daily living activities (Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory- PEDI) , quality of life(Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory- PedsQL) and familial impact (Impact on Family Scale-IPFAM) will be evaluated. Evaluation methods to be used in our study will be applied one-on-one with children and face-to-face interviews with their parents. Our study is important in that there is little evidence on participation studies in children and that changing medical paradigms emphasize the quality of life of children. In addition, the PEM-CY the investigators will use in the study will make the study more valuable as it examines the effect of the environment on participation and evaluates participation in different environments.
