This PhD studies the relationships between impairments, activity limitations (AL), emotions and perceptions of control in people with (chronic) disabling conditions within the context of a rehabilitation setting. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) has become widely adopted within rehabilitation and can be used to describe the process of functioning and disability. Johnston proposed an integrated model of disability which integrates a psychological theory (the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) within the WHO-ICF model. Using this integrated model of disability the following research questions were investigated in a cross sectional, longitudinal and N-of-1 study.
