Individuals who may be restricted in participation in daily activities due to impairments are classically termed:

The term "disabled" is classically used to describe individuals who face restrictions in participation in daily activities due to physical or mental impairments. This term encompasses a wide range of conditions and indicates a distinct social and medical understanding of the barriers faced by these individuals. By recognizing someone as disabled, we acknowledge the complexities of their experiences and the necessity for support and adaptations in various environments to promote inclusion and accessibility.

While other terms like "functionally impaired" could be descriptive, they may not capture the broader social context and the legal implications associated with disability rights and supports. The term "participants" typically refers to individuals involved in activities without necessarily considering the presence of impairments or disabilities. Similarly, while "citizens" is an essential term in discussing rights and identity, it does not specifically address the limitations imposed by impairments. Thus, "disabled" accurately reflects the challenges faced by those with impairments within society.
