摘要
Involvement in productivity roles such as work, volunteerism, and personal projects plays a central rote in the lives of most adults and is associated with enhanced physical and mental health. This Study examined the meaning of productivity to adults with intellectual disabilities, their satisfaction with the roles they held, and contributors and barriers to achieving satisfying productivity outcomes. The results suggest a number of key areas to address in future research and practice, including systemic and social barriers to choice and meaningful participation.
