Cerebral palsy (CP) can be considered the most frequent childhood physical disorder. The severity and type of dysfunction depend on the brain injury. Movement and posture are the most affected areas. CP is a lifelong condition, and parenting a child with this disorder brings additional challenges (e.g., dealing with grief) and needs (e.g., information). Identifying and characterizing their challenges and needs are pivotal to enrich the knowledge …
The Pandemic-Related Factors Associated with Emergency Department Visits in Portugal throughout Two Years of the Pandemic

This study aims to develop and validate a questionnaire to capture …

The Association Between Resilience and Performance
Elementary school students’ attitudes towards cerebral palsy
The present study developed a brief school-based intervention focused on raising awareness about Cerebral Palsy. To assess the effectiveness of the intervention, 91 classes from the fourth and fifth grades were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: Control, Focused on the Domain (Cerebral Palsy), and Non-Focused on the Domain (promotion of inclusion in general). Groups were assessed in three waves: pre-test, post-test, and follow-up. Data…
