The complexity of disability
› Tom Shakespeare is talking about ‘Re-imagining disability’ in 2009:
http://vimeo.com/5161684
› Please watch the first 4+ minutes, when he speaks about
- the variation in people’s ideas about disability and the value of all these ideas (rather
than just one perspective)
- how disability affects us all, and is on a continuum
› The video is almost 30 minutes long and is about art and disability.
› Further readings are in Tom’s book on ‘Disability rights and wrongs’ (see
reference list)
Recognising this complexity…
… we will think about:
1. Why define and classify disability?
2. What is the international standard disability classification – the ICF?
3. How does the ICF relate to some of the major ideas about disability?
4. How does the ICF relate to health, the ICD and the family of
international health classifications?
5. How can the ICF be used?
These are the questions this lecture will discuss, and try to provide some
ideas and answers …

Definition and classification help us
› Use a common, purposive language
- across disciplines, systems and with the people
concerned
› Organise our thinking and planning
› Gather and analyse relevant information
› Carry out meaningful research
› NOT about labelling people
7
Why a disability model and classification?
› Model
- To illustrate relationships among components
› Definition
- To contain the core ideas of a phenomenon
- To ensure we are talking about the same thing
- a common language
› Classification
- Assigns ‘things’ to separate and discrete categories, so
as to group like with like
- Forms the basis of statistical aggregation
8
Rachel Hurst, DPI, 1998
In a perfect world we would prefer to have no
classification at all … However for the purposes of
statistics, assessment for services … and above all for
non-discrimination legislation, we do need to have
definitions of who we are and of our situation and we
reluctantly accept that this means some sort of
classification or analysis of disablement.
9
Typically, classification is the placing of
similar objects into groups
Frequently, the objects are organized in a
hierarchical structure:
2. What is in the international standard disability classification –
the ICF?
12
Health as a global notion
Health = Absence of disease
Health = Complete physical, psychological, spiritual and social well being
13
Health
‘… health is both a matter of how long one lives and how well
one lives (i.e. one’s level of functioning)’
(Üstün et al 2003)
14
Brief history
› International Classification of Impairments, Disabilities and Handicaps
(ICIDH) 1980 – published by WHO for trial purposes only
› Developed to correspond to this broader interpretation of health, especially
as more people live long term with chronic conditions, and as rehabilitation
became more important
› Some criticism e.g. that, while influence of environment was noted, no
systematic classification
› 1993 revision began:
- Literature reviews to identify terms
- Collaborative development
- Testing e.g. for cross-cultural and linguistic applicability
- Alpha and beta drafts for worldwide comments and trials
› 2001 – ICF finalised and published
15
What is the ICF?
› The international standard model, framework and classification for
functioning and disability, published by WHO and endorsed by the
World Health Assembly in 2001
› Functioning encompasses all human functions; at the level of the
body, the individual and society
› Functioning and disability: multi-dimensional experiences resulting
from the interaction between people’s health conditions and their
physical and social environment
16

Definitions (1)
› Body functions are the physiological functions of body
systems (including psychological functions).
› Body structures are anatomical parts of the body such as
organs, limbs and their components.
› Impairments are problems in body function and structure
such as significant deviation or loss.
18
Definitions (2)
› Activity is the execution of a task or action by an
individual.
› Participation is involvement in a life situation.
› Activity limitations are difficulties an individual may have
in executing activities.
› Participation restrictions are problems an individual may
experience in involvement in life situations.
19
Definitions (3)
› Environmental factors make up the physical, social and
attitudinal environment in which people live and conduct
their lives.
These are either barriers to or facilitators of the person’s
functioning.

› Numeric codes, after the neutral domains
- Domains indicate the area of problem, qualifiers
indicate extent of problem
› Body function or structure – 5 point scale to show extent
of impairment
› Activities and Participation – 5 point scale showing
difficulty/problem, depending on environment
› Environmental factor – facilitator or barrier
25
Delineating Activities and Participation
Four options shown in ICF annex 3 (there is a single list of domains but
separate definitions):
› distinct non overlapping sets of Activities (e.g. domains 1-4) and
Participation (e.g. domains 5-9)
› partially overlapping sets (e.g. Activities domains 1-6 and Participation
domains 3-9)
› consider all first and second level categories within a domain as
Participation, and all categories at third or fourth level within a domain as
Activities
› a single fully overlapping list of categories
- Now recommended by WHO

Principles and features of the ICF
ICF is interactive and probabilistic
› Universality. Applicable to all people irrespective of
health condition and in all physical, social and
cultural contexts. The ICF concerns everyone’s
functioning and disability, was not designed, nor
should be used, to label persons with disabilities as a
separate social group.
› Parity - aetiological neutrality. There is not an
explicit or implicit distinction between different health
conditions, whether ‘mental’ or 'physical'. Knowing
the health condition does not imply that disability is
known.
› Neutrality. Domain definitions are worded in neutral
language, wherever possible, so that the
classification can be used to record both the positive
and negative aspects of functioning and disability.
› Environmental Influence. The ICF includes
environmental factors in recognition of the important
role of environment in people’s functioning.
Interaction with environmental factors – physical,
social, attitudinal- is an essential aspect of the
scientific understanding of functioning and disability.

4. How does the ICF relate to health, the ICD and the
WHO Family of International Classifications?
37
WHO “Family” of
International Classifications
a suite of classifications
for international use
as meaningful information tools to capture the core health dimensions
such as:
› deaths,
› disease,
› disability and health
› health interventions.

Estimating prevalence
Using international surveys
and studies:
› Disability multidimensional
experience. Interactive & varies with
the environment
› Disability on a continuum: The need
to set thresholds
› More than a billion people with
disability (15% of world’s
population) - significant difficulties in
their everyday lives
› Some 110 to 190 million people (12%) encounter very significant
difficulties in their daily lives.

Participation
› Social life
- Family and friends the main focus
- ‘Severe’ disability related to less participation
› Education
- Trend towards ‘mainstream’ schooling
- Less likely to have completed Year 12
› Employment: low rates of participation and higher
unemployment
› Relationships, communication, mobility, community,
domestic life - difficulties

Support needs: in the national disability services
statistics
How often does the service user need personal help or supervision
with activities or participation in the following life areas?
-
Needs no help/supervision;
-
Sometimes needs help/supervision;
-
Always needs help/supervision
-
No help if uses aids
All ICF activities and participation domains used (at high, usually
chapter level)
Relates to ICF, ABS population survey, is robust
-
Thousands of outlets & many assessment tools - able to use it
-
Enables supply and demand to be compared
-
Useable by thousands of large and small disability service rpoviders
48
Access: comparing administrative and population data

Benefits of using ICF
› ICF provides a common language about functioning to
- Promote consistent understanding across professional services
and with the people concerned
- Deliver a common basis for measurement
- Structure outcomes definition for interventions
- Underpin consistent data across time and place
› ICF concepts and ethical principles for use – e.g. involve the
person in use - align with the UN Convention
