The purpose of this study was to determine whether changes of multiple lying position might effect the convergence pulmonary function of the 20s men of mild intellectual disabilities. Twenty subjects of mild intellectual disabilities were participated in the experiment. Subjects were assessed for vital capacity by using Fit mate according to the multiple lying position changes(supine position, right sidelying position, left sidelying position, prone position). One-way repeated ANOVA analyzed each region data of vital capacity of subjects according to their multiple lying position. The result of the experiment showed that the 20s men of mild intellectual disabilities have more higher vital capacity to right sidelying position than another lying position. This study suggests that the pulmonary functional data of 20s men of mild intellectual disabilities in this experiment can be used as a basic respiratory one for the bed exercise programs in the area of the physical activities.
