摘要：The present study aims to compare quality of life, depression, anxiety symptoms and profile of mood state of wheelchair athletes and non-athletes. Thirty-nine basketball and rugby wheelchair athletes (n=23, nine women, age 36.0±10.0 years; body mass 66.2±13.8 kg; height 170.0±8.5 cm)] and non-athletes (n=16, 4 women, 39.0±14.2 years; body mass 79.6±17.2 kg; height 170.0±6.4 cm) were recruited. Quality of life, anxiety and depressive symptoms and mood disorders were evaluated by the Medical Outcomes Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Beck Depression Inventory and Profile of Mood State questionnaire, respectively. Comparison between groups (non-athletes vs. athletes) was performed using Student's t-test for independent samples. No differences (p>0.05) were found between non-athletes vs. athletes regards to quality of life, depressive and anxiety symptoms and profile of mood state. Overall, non-athletes and athletes presented medium anxiety symptoms and mild to moderate depressive symptoms. In conclusion, the wheelchair athletes and non-athletes presented similar quality of life, depressive and anxiety symptoms and profile of mood state.
