Abstract

A computerized search of literature on sport for disabled persons referenced in the MEDLINE (Index Medicus) and the SPORTDiscus (Sport International Resource Center SIRC) databases yielded 253 records published during the past 15 years. An analysis of these records by disability, age, and scientific discipline indicated that (a) publications related to physiology were most frequent (41%), followed by publications related to psychology (29%); (b) 58% of all records had wheelchair users as subjects; and (c) children were exclusive subjects in 10% and females in less than 2% of the records reviewed in this search.
