| Description | The term of early intervention is usually associated with early childhood. But early intervention is an important process after injury in teenagers or early adulthood. Research reports indicate that it requires a period of two years to restore the habits of everyday life. The background of the presented research study is based on the theoretical models of post-trauma development and modification of the theory of transition. Physical activities can play a significant role as the one of the determinants of a post-trauma early intervention, which should shorten the recovery period. The theories are confronted with the research findings of sitting volleyball players of Bosnia & Herzegovina and sledge-hockey players of the Czech Republic. The determinants of social environment, health and rehabilitation care, economy and technologies, as well as the origin of the trauma (injury) were found in both countries but in different proportions. The period of one year is usually important for daily life acceptance, and a second year for participation in regular Paralympic sports. |
