PERCEPTION OF THE IMPORTANCE OF VALUES IN YOUNG PEOPLE WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY THROUGH ADAPTED SPORTS ACTIVITY AND MORAL DILEMMAS

The aim of this paper is to analyze the importance given to values in young people with intellectual disability, after the implementation of an educational program to promote values through adapted sports activities and moral dilemmas. The sample consisted of 26 students pertaining two different promotions (n 1= 12; n 2 = 14), ages 19 to 37 (M = 24.08 +/- 4.57). The instrument used was the Spanish version of the Sport Value Questionnaire (SVQ-E) adapted for intellectual disability. A quasi-experimental research design was planned, specifically a pre-post design with quasi-control in an earlier cohort. Results showed statistically significant differences in the perception of value of fair play/honesty in the first promotion. In addition, there were statistically significant differences on the importance given to values included in the program versus values not included.
