- W3086153604 abstract "Adolescents with autism spectrum disorder are less physically active compared with their age-related peers. Despite the many benefits of physical activity, little is known about why they are predominantly inactive. To date, research has rarely included adolescent’s perspectives, and little is known about how wider social, systemic, and policy forces shape physical activity. The purpose of this study was to explore the perceptions, meanings, and role of physical activity in the lives of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder, and draw on their experiences to examine how social and cultural processes shaped their participation. Ten adolescent boys with autism spectrum disorder created individual digital stories, and participated in two interviews. Thematic analysis was informed by a critical social science approach. The results highlight that bullying, challenges in community programs, and the prioritization of therapeutic interventions limited participation. Participation was maximized when physical activity generated meaning, purpose, a sense of identity, and affective pleasures. The study findings illuminate the complexity of physical activity participation which has not previously been described in the literature. The findings suggest potential value in promoting the affective pleasures of movement, along with facilitating social and systemic pathways to enhance physical activity participation. Lay abstract Adolescents with autism spectrum disorder are less likely to be physically active compared to their age-related peers. Despite the lower levels of physical activity observed among adolescents with autism spectrum disorder, it is unknown why they are predominantly inactive. Much of the research so far has focused on understanding how biological aspects influence physical activity participation. But there is little research that has examined how social and cultural components influence their physical activity participation. There is also little research that has sought the perspectives and experiences of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder. In this study, 10 adolescent boys with autism spectrum disorder created a digital story, and also participated in two face-to-face interviews. The purpose of the study was to examine how individual, social, and cultural forces influenced physical activity participation. Analysis of the data highlight that bullying, challenges in community programs, and the prioritization of therapeutic interventions limited participation. On the contrary, participants were more likely to be active when physical activity generated meaning, purpose, a sense of identity, and affective pleasures. The findings add new knowledge suggesting that adolescents with autism spectrum disorder are not simply unmotivated. Rather, physical activity participation was shaped by wider social experiences, norms, values, and practices in which they were immersed. The findings suggest a need for directed efforts to create policies and practices which are individualized and reflective of the needs and abilities of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder to promote physical activity participation and potentially enhance physical health and wellbeing." @default.
