Effect of the environmental factor of coexistence on the physical condition of people with mild and moderate intellectual disabilities:

Gutiérrez-Cruz et al. (2023)

Resumen

The 2023 study by Gutiérrez-Cruz et al. investigated how living environments affect the physical health of adults with mild to moderate intellectual disabilities. Comparing those in independent homes to those in residential care facilities, researchers found that the independent living environment significantly favored better balance and dynamic strength.

El estudio destaca el impacto del entorno de coexistencia en la condición física. Sugiere que los centros de atención residencial deben implementar programas de actividad física más frecuentes e intensos para cerrar la brecha de aptitud física para las personas con discapacidad intelectual.
