O cotidiano compreende as atividades laborais, de lazer, de estudo, de autocuidado, de convívio social, entre outras, sendo também considerado como uma perspectiva de análise e intervenção orientadora da prática do terapeuta ocupacional. A condição de deficiência pode, muitas vezes, afetar a realização dessas atividades. O artigo tem como objetivo apresentar as dificuldades e possibilidades de realização de atividades cotidianas de jovens com deficiência. Com base no método Photovoice, que prioriza o ponto de vista do pesquisado, quatro jovens realizaram fotografias de atividades, locais, ou objetos relevantes em seu dia-a-dia, em uma semana típica de suas rotinas. Uma segunda rodada de fotografias referentes aos obstáculos enfrentados cotidianamente foi realizada, e apenas dois jovens participaram. A análise das fotografias ocorreu em conjunto com os participantes, quando relataram individualmente para a pesquisadora o contexto e motivos de realização das fotos. No texto comparou-se os registros de dois jovens, identificando diferenças extremas em seus cotidianos. O relato e reflexão sobre as fotos foi considerado significativo para um dos participantes que afirmou ter gostado de realizar os registros fotográficos. Pelas imagens, registradas pode-se observar que um dos participantes tem menos oportunidades de participação social, uma vez que seus registros foram todos realizados dentro de sua casa. Ambos participantes registraram limitações voltadas sobretudo às condições de acessibilidade arquitetônica e geográfica, seja dentro de casa ou em espaços de uso coletivo, revelando a grande interferência desses impedimentos para sua vida cotidiana. Abstract The daily life is marked by work, leisure, study, self-care, social interation, also considered as a perspective and analysis of the occupational therapist's practice. The disability condition can often affect the performance of these activities. The article aims to present the difficulties and possibilities of carrying out daily activities of young people with disabilities. Based on the Photovoice method, which prioritizes from the subject's point of view, the youngsters took photographs of relevant activities, places, or objects in their daily life in a typical week of their routines. A second round of photographs regarding the obstacles faced daily was held, and only two young people participated.. The analysis of the photographs occurred together with the participants, when they individually reported to the researcher the context and reasons for the photos. In the text, the records of the two young people were compared, identifying extreme differences in their daily lives. The report and reflection on the photos was considered significant for one of the participants, who liked to carry out the photographic records. From the recorded images, it can be observed that one of the participants has fewer opportunities for social participation, since their records were all carried out inside their house. Both participants registered limitations mainly on the architectural and geographical accessibility conditions, either indoors or in spaces of collective use, revealing the great interference of these impediments to their daily life.Keywords: Daily life; Photography; Young with disabilities; Occupational therapy.

Attitudes Towards Inclusion

People with disabilities, who represent a significant part of the population of today's world, are still on the margins of social goods and values because of the attitudes of people who are not. Although, in earlier social eras, they were observed mainly from the point of view of social possibilities of existence, the appearance of significant world documents, and affirmations on the labour market, these attitudes changed somewhat. Nevertheless, in many countries of the world, the upbringing and education of children and young people with disabilities is burdened with numerous difficulties and problems. This chapter will help students, professionals, and others interested in these problems to get to know them and thus enrich their cognitive, emotional, social, and work competencies that may be needed to work with them. It will help them in practical application at all levels of their education, which will contribute to strengthening positive attitudes towards inclusion.

This article considers the function of friendship as a form of urban relation for young people living in working class areas of Australia’s multicultural capital cities. These neighbourhoods are characterised by very high diversity, significant socioeconomic disadvantage and large youth populations, and over the last five years many have received the largest influx of refugees and migrants of any Australian municipality. Against this backdrop, this article investigates the ways that sociality is produced amongst young people of many backgrounds who must constantly negotiate interethnic propinquity in their daily lives. It explores how young people create ways of being together beyond and beneath the imperatives of formal social cohesion initiatives to participate in harmonious community-making. It argues that everyday forms of convivial co-habitation are produced and regulated through friendship relations and networks that embed mix in daily life, and these can serve to recognise and manage, rather than eliminate, intensity, conflict and ambivalence. It suggests that such practices of sociality complicate mainstream policy endeavours, and can offer some important and hopeful ways to expand theorisation of social relations in the multicultural city.

Children with mental retardation depend on parents in carrying out daily activities such as in terms of self-care independence so that exercise or therapy that can be applied is occupational therapy. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of occupational therapy on the level of self-care independence in children with mental retardation at SDLB Negeri Lamongan. The design of this study is experimental design that is quasi experimental with one group pre and post test design. The sampling technique used is non probability sampling, namely purposive sampling with a total of 15 children. Data collection was carried out using independence observation sheet. Observations were performed for 3 weeks with 5 meetings, each meeting for ≤ 1 hour in SDLB Negeri Lamongan. The results of the Wilcoxon sign rank test in this study showed that p value = 0.001 where p <0.05 with Z -3.411 and Z table is 1-0.0032 due to 2-sided test, the result of Z count is far from the critical number Z ± 1, 96 by moving to the left, which means that Ho is rejected, which means there is influence of occupational therapy on the level of self-care independence in children with mental retardation at SDLB Negeri Lamongan. The results of this study showed that the degree of independence of self-care before being given occupational therapy was mostly in moderate dependence category and after being given occupational therapy mostly in independent category. Occupational therapy can produce and increase independence, especially the ability in daily activities in terms of caring for themselves.

Introdução: Há distintas perspectivas sobre a infância. Assim, é necessário alargar os conhecimentos em Terapia Ocupacional a respeito dos cotidianos de crianças (Erês), sobretudo as de terreiro, que imprimem formas de envolvimento sagrado, baseado nas ocupações tradicionais, onde o dentro e o fora do terreiro possuem limites muito tênues. Objetivo: Compreender o envolvimento em ocupações tradicionais e os sentidos e implicações que estas exercem na vida cotidiana mais ampla de crianças de terreiro. Método: Foram conduzidas atividades dialogadas, durante o desenvolvimento de uma pesquisa qualitativa e exploratória em Terapia Ocupacional, com abordagem da pesquisa-participante, junto a sete crianças de um terreiro de candomblé na cidade de São Gonçalo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, entre outubro e novembro de 2016. Resultados: Foram produzidas atividades dialogadas, que facilitaram a produção de narrativas das crianças, sobre o cotidiano de terreiro. Um mural serviu de síntese das narrativas e identificação de quatro temas, que oportunizaram a discussão sobre ocupações tradicionais na infância, a saber: 1) Minha vida no terreiro; 2) Ser criança no terreiro; 3) Ser criança de terreiro fora do terreiro; e 4) O projeto Erê Yá L’omi. Discussão: Os temas destacam os sentidos de pertencimento, a construção identitária e as formas de lidar com as violências da intolerância religiosa na vida social mais ampla. Considerações finais: A tradição e a ancestralidade constituem elementos fundamentais do envolvimento ocupacional de crianças e jovens de terreiro. Este envolvimento se refere a uma tessitura intergeracional, pois estão intimamente coligadas à (re)existência e às funções e aprendizagens no terreiro.Palavras-chave: Ocupações tradicionais. Infância. Povos de terreiro. Comunidades. Terapia Ocupacional.Abstract Introduction: There are different perspectives on childhood. Thus, it is necessary to expand the knowledge in Occupational Therapy regarding the daily lives of children (Erês), especially those in the terreiro, which print forms of sacred involvement, based on traditional occupations, where the inside and outside of the terreiro have very tenuous limits. Aim: To understand the involvement in traditional occupations and the meanings and implications that these have in the wider daily life of children in the terreiro. Method: Dialogue activities were conducted during the development of a qualitative and exploratory research in Occupational Therapy, with a participant-research approach, with seven children from a candomblé terreiro in the city of São Gonçalo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, between October and November 2016. Results: Graphic activities were produced that composed the children's narratives about the daily life of the terreiro. A mural served as a synthesis of the narratives and identification of four themes that made it possible to discuss traditional occupations in childhood, namely: 1) My life in the terreiro; 2) Being a child in the terreiro; 3) Being a child in a terreiro outside the terreiro; and 4) The Erê Yá L’omi project. Discussion: The themes highlight the senses of belonging, the identity construction and the ways of dealing with the violence of religious intolerance in the broader social life. Final considerations: Tradition and ancestry are fundamental elements of the occupational involvement of children and young people from the terreiro. This involvement refers to an intergenerational fabric, as they are closely linked to (re) existence and to the functions and learning in the terreiro.Keywords: Traditional occupations. Childhood. Terreiro’s folk. Communities. Occupational Therapy.ResumenIntroducción: Existen diferentes perspectivas sobre la infancia.

This chapter explores the daily lives of fishermen and fishing communities in Kaohsiung. It explores the migration networks of Taiwan and how ethnic boundaries impacted job prospects; the onshore economic activities in the region; the culture of long-distance fishing and how it impacted marriage, family, and relationships; wage rates; and welfare. It concludes that by the 1970s it had become difficult to attract young people to the fishing careers due to onshore job opportunities, poor fishing wages, and poor personal relationship prospects.

Introduction Although the benefits of physical activity are widely recognised, levels of inactivity are considerably higher for children and young people with disabilities than those without. Young people with disabilities struggle to access inclusive opportunities and there is a lack of research surrounding users’ experiences of disability sport more generally. This research aimed to explore members’ experiences of a community-based wheelchair basketball club and its impact on daily life. Method Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 disabled and able-bodied members of the club (aged 6–25 years) to gain an in-depth understanding of their experiences. Findings Inductive thematic analysis identified an overarching theme of ‘wheelchair basketball elicits strong emotions’ and four main themes of ‘positive social interactions’, ‘benefitting health and independence’, ‘changing perceptions of disability’ and ‘a meaningful occupation that opens doors’. Participants reported positive experiences of wheelchair basketball, which improved their physical and mental health whilst increasing opportunities for socialisation and encouraging acceptance of disability. Conclusion The findings have implications at individual, organisational and societal levels, and provide some justification for the role of occupational therapy in disability sport. The findings demonstrate the potential for inclusive community sports clubs to improve health and social outcomes for individuals, regardless of disability.

In this research, the application of eleventh grade chemistry book content on the daily life of students at professor Rasoon Amin school in kabul provinces has been studied. The application has been evaluatyed at two levels of social and individual bases. The research was based on the active components of William Roman's theory and the context-based approach, which based on this theory, the practical content of the book, encourages students to use it in their daily lives. The results of this study showed that the practical content of the 11th grade chemistry in daily life has confirmed to maintain the health of students with more than 80% of their answers. Recognition of natural resources using chemistry content is more than 80% in students and they feel responsibility about 80% in their lives. In addition, more than 80% of students have taken benefits of chemistry content. On the other hand, the study made it clear that whenever the subject is taught empirically and practically and the students' attention is drawn to practical activities, it can be used in all aspects of everyday’s life.
