Abstract

Policies are open in order to promote integration of adapted sport into general sport. The project Blanquerna Inclusion would bring knowledge and strategies to facilitate the process of social inclusion in the sports system. The project will involve athletes, technicians and managers, representing single sport federations and federations of sports for people with disabilities. As a first step, from a sociocognitive perspective, beliefs and attitude are evaluated into a group of participants, in all three roles, representing the federations of sports for people with disabilities. A technique based on Fishbein and Ajzen model and a content analysis strategy, using triangulation of expert judges, will be used. We describe differences in attitudes between men and women, over their conception of adapted sports and athletes with disabilities, and differences in beliefs about social inclusion, among the group of athletes and the group of coaches and managers.
