Phenomenological Research Involving Students with Disabilities in Physical Education: A Systematic Literature Review
Fabián Arroyo-Rojas; Samuel R. Hodge
Quest, v76 n2 p135-153 2024
The purpose of this systematic literature review was to synthesize published phenomenologically informed studies situated in physical education with students with disabilities as the participants of the research. Keyword searches from different electronic databases were used to identify phenomenological studies from 2000 to 2022. A total of 16 articles were selected, and the findings were summarized and analyzed. Three thematic clusters surfaced from narrative analysis, which were: (a) the intersection of disability, gender, and athleticism; (b) social interactions in physical education; and (c) the role of the physical education teacher toward the lived experiences of students with disabilities. Findings support the need to engage through an intersectional lens considering multiple identities to better understand the experiences of children with disabilities in physical education. Appropriate modifications and accommodations that attend to all students' needs and promote meaningful social interactions among peers contributing to positive lived embodied experiences should be promoted.
