Zusammenfassung

This study investigated the perception of subjective well-being (SW) and perceived effort, learning and fun in an inclusive water skiing (IWS) course. Five adults with physical disabilities between the ages of 45 and 63 (M = 52.6, SD = 7.7) from a State Reference Centre for Severely Disabled People participated in a six-session IWS course in the natural environment of a reservoir. The methodology of the course followed an abilities-based approach, applying an inclusion spectrum to water skiing (Suárez-Iglesias and Suárez-García, 2016). Participants’ SW was measured before and after the course with the Well-being Index (WHO-5) questionnaire (WHO, 1998). In each session, the perception of learning and fun was assesed with the "traffic light" instrument by Palao and Hernández (2012), while the subjective perception of effort was assessed through Borg’s scale (1982). The results show that SW increased after completing the course, and in most sessions participants considered they learnt and had a lot of fun, generally perceiving the effort between "quite light" and "somewhat hard". Eventually, the practice of IWS by institutionalized adults with disabilities may promote their SW and serve as a leisure-time physical activity they enjoy, where they learn and do not require much effort.
