For individuals with disabilities, advantages included improved health, participation, and increased influence over their lives. However, disadvantages included preconditions that are often unmet in practice, such as consistent use of communication aids, sufficient time, and stable staffing.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec004\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Promoting self-determination in this population requires attention to their interactions with support networks and the quality of collaboration.
