Questions from this subtopic
Each one with the model answer underneath.
- 1
How is the success of efforts to remove barriers measured?
Model answer
Participation surveys track activity levels among different groups over time. A narrowing gap between groups shows progress.
- 2
What is the difference between a physical and a psychological barrier?
Model answer
A physical barrier is a practical obstacle, such as a lack of ramps. A psychological barrier is an internal obstacle, such as low confidence.
- 3
Why are several barriers often combined for one person?
Model answer
An older disabled woman on a low income may face age, disability, gender and cost barriers together. Solutions must address all of them.
- 4
How can community outreach reduce barriers?
Model answer
Outreach takes activities into communities, such as sessions in local halls or parks. People who would not visit a leisure centre can take part.
- 5
How can technology reduce barriers to participation?
Model answer
Online classes and fitness apps let people exercise at home at low cost. Online booking systems make access to facilities easier.
- 6
Why might a free event still fail to attract people facing barriers?
Model answer
Cost is only one barrier; time, transport, confidence and awareness may still stop people. Events must address several barriers at once.
