Children with physical disabilities are at increased risk of limitations to participation in everyday activities. This study describes research examining the children day-to-day formal and informal activities (excluding mandated academic schooling). Using Children's Assessment Participation Enjoyment (CAPE) measure, data on patterns were collected from 427 (229 males, 198 females; mean age 10 y [SD 2 4 mo]; range 6-14 y) their families. The primary types disability sample included cerebral...
Abstract There is a need for psychometrically sound measures of children’s participation in recreation and leisure activities, both clinical research purposes. This paper provides information about the construct validity Children’s Assessment Participation Enjoyment (CAPE) its companion measure, Preferences Activities Children (PAC). These are appropriate children youth with without disabilities between ages 6 21 years. They provide six dimensions (i.e. diversity, intensity, where, whom,...
Purpose To update the 2002 American Society of Clinical Oncology guideline on pharmacologic interventions for breast cancer (BC) risk reduction.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has disrupted all aspects of clinical care, including cancer trials. In March 2020, ASCO launched a survey programs represented on its Cancer Research Committee and Community Forum Steering Group taskforces to learn about the types changes challenges that trial were experiencing early in pandemic. There 32 respondents; 14 academic programs, 18 community-based programs. Respondents indicated COVID-19 is leading halt or prioritize screening...
A concerted commitment across research stakeholders is necessary to increase equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) address barriers cancer clinical trial recruitment participation. Racial ethnic diversity among participants key understanding intrinsic extrinsic factors that may affect patient response treatments. This ASCO Association of Community Cancer Centers (ACCC) Research Statement presents specific recommendations strategies for the community improve EDI in trials. There are six...
This commentary is a call to action for concerted commitment and effort transform clinical trials enable people with cancer participate in closer home. Three key strategies are identified address major barriers: confront challenges the interpretation of US Food Drug Administration Form 1572 requirements (Statement Investigator); broaden acceptance local laboratories imaging centers; invest creation effective, sustainable partnerships between research centers providers.
Abstract Background The provision of family‐centred services (FCS) emphasizes a partnership between parents and service providers so that families are involved in every aspect for their child. There is evidence providing FCS associated with improvements parents’ satisfaction services, decreased parental stress, positive child outcomes.

Abstract Structural equation modeling was used to test a theoretically based model of environmental, family, and child factors as determinants the leisure recreation participation children with physical disabilities. Participants were 427 families (229 boys 198 girls) functional limitations, in 3 age groups (6-8, 9-11, 12-14 years). Data collected via home interviews self-administered standardized questionnaires. The significant direct predictors children's intensity both formal informal...
The primary goal of occupational therapy intervention for children with disabilities is enabling participation in the daily activities childhood. World Health Organization conceptualizes chronic health conditions and disability as two distinct aspects health, concern on level condition being diagnosis rather than function. Participation, within International Classification Functioning, Disability (ICF), characterized by interactions between a child, its family, other personal environmental...
In this paper the decline of party voting in U.S. House Representatives from 1887 to 1968 is analyzed. The levels (by Congress) are fitted a regression line, with results showing high period (1890-1910), an intermediate (1911-1940), and low (1941-1968). A model developed measure effects on external variables-party homogeneity, conflict, presidential partisanship, turnover; internal variables-centralized leadership caucus strength. Both types variables shown have some effect, but external-and...
Despite the fairly extensive literature on developmental benefits of youth's participation in organised, out‐of‐school activities, little is known about school‐aged children with physical disabilities formal recreation and leisure both comparison their informal activities who are typically developing. Enjoyment was examined for 427 354 without disabilities, aged 6–14 years. It predicted that would report significantly greater enjoyment than whereas this not be case disabilities. This...
Similarities and differences were examined in the out‐of‐school recreation leisure activity participation of 422 children with physical disabilities 354 without disabilities. The roles age (six to eight years, nine 11 12–14 years), gender, disability status respect diversity, intensity, location, companionship, enjoyment five types activities, controlling for family income. findings indicate that dimensions are differentially influenced by age, disability. Age cohort comparisons indicated...
