Research on the Home Life of Adults With Growth Delay

Abstract: This study focuses on the differences between individuals with growth delay disorders and the general population in daily life. It explores the experiences and needs of individuals with growth delay disorders in their home lives. Through the use of observation and interviews, real-life data from individual cases were collected to identify and analyze the needs and challenges faced by these individuals. The study also highlights the difficulties that individuals with growth delay disorders face, which may not be fully understood by the general population.

To address the challenges faced by individuals with growth delay disorders in their home environments, such as difficulties in accessing items placed at higher levels and poorly designed furniture, interventions and improvements are proposed. These interventions aim to enhance the quality of life for individuals with growth delay disorders in their home settings, while also helping their family members better meet their needs. Understanding the difficulties and needs of individuals with growth delay disorders in their home lives is crucial for providing appropriate support.

Key words: growth delay disorders, home life, observation and interviews, quality of life
