Collection and usage attributes | |
Guide for use: | Environmental factors represent the circumstances in which the individual lives. These factors are conceived as immediate (e.g. physical features of the environment, social environment) and societal (formal and informal social structures, services and systems). Different environments may have a very different impact on the same individual with a given health condition. The influence of environmental factors may be positive, increasing the level of functioning (a facilitator), or negative, decreasing the level of functioning (a barrier). The extent of influence of the Environmental factors is affected both by the degree, strength of influence, and the amount of time the influence is experienced by the person. This metadata item is recorded in conjunction with Environmental factor code N to indicate the extent to which specified environmental factors influence the body function or structure, the activity or participation of a person. |
