摘要

本研究旨在了解及探讨行动障碍人士使用辅助科技的障碍。一项针对300名来自印度北部农村和城市地区的行动不便人士的调查采用了有目的的抽样技术。第一阶段开发了一种有效的测量障碍的工具，而第二阶段将该工具应用于调查。结果显示，可负担性（0.42±0.32）、知晓性（0.46±0.48）和可及性（0.57±0.44）是最常见的障碍。研究结果可以帮助产品设计师和康复专家提高可及性、可负担性和可用性。

Understanding and exploring barriers of assistive technology for individuals with mobility disabilities.

This study aims to understand and explore the barriers to assistive technology for individuals with mobility disabilities. A survey was carried out among 300 people from both rural and urban areas of northern India with mobility disabilities, selected using a purposive sampling technique. Phase I developed a valid tool to measure barriers, while Phase II applied the tool in a survey. Results showed affordability (0.42 ± 0.32), awareness (0.46 ± 0.48), and accessibility (0.57 ± 0.44) as the most common barriers. The findings may assist product designers and rehabilitation specialists in improving accessibility, affordability, and availability.
