The proposed typology may appear to be too specific as many of the presumed typical constellations only cover one environmental barrier item.

This ranking is based on the relative contribution of each environmental barrier item to the variance in the total HE score.

Each barrier item has a descriptive label attached, designating barrier characteristics, such as "Paths narrower than 1.5 m", "High thresholds at entrance more than 15 mm" etc. Further, for each barrier item there is a 14-position scoring pattern, where the scores denote severity of accessibility problems related to 14 functional limitations of the individual.
