Personal factors understood through the Ecological-Enactive Model of Disability and implications for rehabilitation research.

WHAT IT FOUND

This paper outlines a theoretical framework for understanding disability as an interaction between a person's capabilities and their environment.

It does not test an intervention or report clinical outcomes, so there is no evidence here to change treatment protocols.
