"The findings from this thesis show that virtual worlds offer valuable affordances for
people with lifelong disability and identify six affordances offered: communication,
mobility, personalization, social inclusion, personal development, and joint activity.
The study also concludes that the affordances identified may represent constraints to
some people because of their disability"
