Abstract

Abstract The main aim of the article is to present the results of research concerning the reconstruction of the identity of people with disabilities who practice Race Running. In the scientific literature focused on disability, sport is presented as one of the important elements serving for the reconstruction of the identity of people with disabilities and their integration, inclusion with the surrounding social world. However, previous studies did not analyze in this context the role of Race Running, which is a niche, developing sport discipline. Therefore, this article fills a significant gap in the scientific literature dedicated to the role of sport in the reconstruction of the identity of people with disabilities by undertaking an analysis of sport, which has not been the subject of research so far. Starting from the concept of ‘pendulum’ developed by Karen K. Yoshida, the following article provides a model of identity reconstruction based on five processes: Socialising, Becoming independent, Exposing, Proving, Realizing. The conceptualization of this model is based on the results of qualitative research using the in-depth interview technique. The respondents were people with disabilities practicing Race Running in Poland, their family members and their coaches. The results of the research show not only the possibilities for people with disabilities, which comes with practicing Race Running, but also limitations, because the specificity and technical requirements of this sport mean that its benefits can only be used by people with a certain type of disability.

残障人士竞跑的身份重建

摘要:本文的主要目的是介绍有关残障人士竞跑身份重建的研究成果。在关注残疾的科学文献中，体育被认为是重建残疾人身份以及他们与周围社会世界融合和包容的重要因素之一。然而，以往的研究并没有在这一背景下分析赛跑的作用，这是一个小众的，发展中的运动学科。因此，本文通过对体育进行分析，填补了科学文献中致力于体育在残疾人身份重建中的作用的重大空白，这迄今为止还不是研究的主题。本文从吉田凯伦(Karen K. Yoshida)提出的“钟摆”概念出发，提供了一个基于社会化、独立、暴露、证明、实现五个过程的身份重建模型。该模型的概念化是基于使用深度访谈技术的定性研究结果。受访者是在波兰练习赛跑的残疾人，他们的家人和教练。这项研究的结果不仅表明了练习赛跑对残疾人的可能性，也表明了它的局限性，因为这项运动的特殊性和技术要求意味着它的好处只能由特定类型的残疾人使用。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
