Health Policy, 2012, vol. 108, issue 1, 67-75

Abstract: The study describes the extent to which the concept of accessibility and accessibility issues has been reported in a national Scandinavian disability magazine. In this study particular attention is paid to how the compatibility between the various domains of the international classification – International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) – has been covered in the magazine over a decade. Furthermore, other types of descriptions that the magazine has made of accessibility for people with physical disabilities are considered.
