Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: Adapted paddleboard provides an outdoor leisure-time physical activities (LTPA) opportunity with many health benefits (e.g., physical activity, reduced stress, social engagement). However, nearly 50% of individuals with disabilities do not participate in any LTPA. Quality of LTPA participation influences sustainable adherence, while optimizing participant experiences. An adapted paddleboard program is offered in Quebec City, for adults with physical disabilities, but little is known about how participants perceive their quality of participation. This study aimed to describe individuals with disabilities\' perceived quality of participation in the adapted paddleboard program, and to explore their suggestions of strategies to support meaningful engagement in the program.
UNASSIGNED: An ethnographic mixed-methods design was conducted, consisting of participant observations during the 13-week program and semi-structured interviews based on the Quality Parasport Participation Framework (QPPF). Measure of Experiential Aspects of Participation (MeEAP) questionnaire were collected. A mixed approach of data analysis was used for qualitative data and descriptive statistics were conducted for quantitative data.
UNASSIGNED: Nine participants (8F) with various disabilities (42±15 years old) participated in the study. Emergent dimensions of quality of participation included belongingness and autonomy. Facilitators to participation were identified, such as autonomy support through volunteers and provision of adaptive equipment. Barriers to participation included water access and level of individual challenge. Suggested strategies to improve engagement included water access closer to parking and multiple groups for variable skill levels.
UNASSIGNED: Participants expressed high-quality of participation in adapted paddleboarding. The study allows the development of knowledge about conditions that enhance the experience of participating in outdoor LTPA.
Adapted paddleboard is an increasingly popular activity that can be adapted with material and environmental accommodations for people with disabilities to enable and enhance participation in outdoor leisure-time physical activities (LTPA).Several facilitators, such as the safety of the site or the social support created by the group, enhance quality of experience in leisure-time physical activities (LTPA) including adapted paddleboard; therefore, support sustainable adherence in the practice of physical activities, well-being and social participation.Further opportunities to practice LTPA such as adapted paddleboard in a public space to promote social inclusion are necessary.

摘要：
■自适应桨板提供了具有许多健康益处的户外休闲体育活动（LTPA）机会（例如，身体活动,减少压力，社会参与)。然而,近50%的残疾人没有参加任何LTPA。LTPA参与的质量影响可持续遵守，同时优化参与者体验。魁北克市提供了一个经过调整的桨板计划，对于身体残疾的成年人，但对参与者如何看待他们的参与质量知之甚少。这项研究旨在描述残疾人在适应的paddleboard计划中的参与质量，并探索他们的战略建议，以支持有意义的参与该计划。
■进行了人种学混合方法设计，包括13周计划期间的参与者观察和基于质量支持参与框架（QPPF）的半结构化访谈。收集了参与体验方面的测量(MeEAP)问卷。定性数据采用混合数据分析方法，定量数据采用描述性统计方法。
■9名具有各种残疾（42±15岁）的参与者（8F）参加了这项研究。参与质量的新兴维度包括归属感和自主性。确定了参与的促进者，例如通过志愿者提供自治支持和提供适应性设备。参与的障碍包括获得水和个人挑战的程度。改善参与度的建议策略包括靠近停车场的水通道以及不同技能水平的多个小组。
■参与者表达了高质量的参与适应板。该研究允许发展有关条件的知识，以增强参与户外LTPA的体验。适应板是一种越来越受欢迎的活动，可以适应残疾人的物质和环境住宿，以实现和增强户外休闲体育活动（LTPA）的参与。几位主持人，例如网站的安全性或团体创建的社会支持，提高休闲体育活动（LTPA）的体验质量，包括适应的桨板；因此，支持体育活动实践中的可持续坚持，幸福和社会参与。有必要进一步实践LTPA的机会，例如在公共空间中进行调整的桨板，以促进社会包容。
