由于相关的负面身体和心理影响，残疾退伍军人在服兵役后的生活质量可能会很差。然而，参加体育活动已证明可带来身心益处，并提高这一人口的生活质量。适应性体育是解决残疾退伍军人独特的身体和心理社会需求的一种创新方法，正越来越广泛地用作改善这些退伍军人生活质量的康复工具。本研究旨在确定参加为期一天的、以退伍军人为基础的、适应性皮划艇和帆船活动对不同残疾退伍军人的整体健康、生活质量和社会生活质量的急性影响。据推测，所有三个类别和生活质量的总分将反映积极的急性反应后，参与以社区为基础的体育活动事件。退伍军人在参加活动之前和之后直接使用5分Likert量表回答了三个与生活质量相关的问题。研究结果表明，一个适应性的体育赛事可以有一个急性积极的影响，对退伍军人参与者的生活质量，观察到的改善，在所有三个类别的感知生活质量。因此，退伍军人事务部继续为退伍军人提供参与非传统、以社区为基础的活动的机会，有利于残疾退伍军人的全健康康复。
Veterans with disabilities can experience poor quality of life following military service due to the associated negative physical and psychological ramifications. However, participation in physical activities has shown to induce both physical and mental benefits and improve the quality of life of this population. Adaptive sports, an innovative approach to address the unique physical and psychosocial needs of veterans with disabilities, are becoming more widely used as a rehabilitation tool to improve the quality of life for these veterans. This study aimed to determine the acute influence of participation in a single-day, veteran-based, adaptive kayaking and sailing event on the perceived overall health, quality of life, and quality of social life of veterans with varying disabilities. It was hypothesized that all three categories and the sum score of quality of life would reflect a positive acute response after participation in the community-based physical activity event. Veterans responded to three quality of life-related questions using a 5-point Likert scale before and directly after participating in the event. Findings indicated that an adaptive sporting event can have an acute positive influence on the quality of life of veteran participants, with improvements observed in all three categories of perceived quality of life. Therefore, it is advantageous for the whole-health rehabilitation of veterans with disabilities for the Department of Veterans Affairs to continue to provide opportunities for veterans to participate in non-traditional, community-based activities.
