Abstract:

A literature review examines how mental health difficulties may differ for people with learning disabilities (PwLD) and the general population; with respect to their vulnerability to mental ill-health and the definition, presentation and treatment of mental health problems. Factors which have been found to positively impact on the mental health of PwLD are then explored. The review considers methodological limitations and gaps in our understanding, highlighting a need for further research focusing on mental health recovery for individuals with learning disabilities.

Abstract:

Work, leisure and retirement are fundamental aspects of life for individuals with an intellectual disability, just as with the general population. Many educational efforts have taught knowledge and skills to persons with an intellectual disability to improve their functioning in the work and leisure domains. More recently, retirement concerns have become particularly salient because so many individuals now live much longer. The present study looked at using a conceptual approach to improve education in these three domains. It employed the principles that instruction works much better when it p

Abstract:

The main focus of this thesis is to investigate the mental worlds of intellectually disabled people. It is intended to provide information about how members of this population construe their environments and how recent changes in the philosophy of care have affected their construct systems. Personal construct theory is used as the model that underpins the studies in the thesis and a modified version of repertory grid technique is developed and used to explore physical and social aspects of each subject's environment. After a pilot study was conducted to establish the viability of using modifie

Abstract:

This dissertation explores how an interdisciplinary analysis may contribute insight into how literary and policy discourses construct the life experiences of people who have mental disabilities that impair their ability to communicate their own life stories. Chapter One explains why a more comprehensive understanding of the cultural construction of mental disability may be achieved by exploring interdisciplinary relationships between social work, disability studies and literary theory. Subsequent chapters examine theoretical assumptions and frameworks associated with these contributing discipl

Abstract:

Intellectual disability, and in particular profound intellectual disability, has an impact on all aspects of a quality of life including that of spiritual development. Some insight into this influence can be gained from a historical review of the attitudes in general towards people with an intellectual disability. Such a review may be especially pertinent when inferences can be drawn from a religious context. References from the Bible through to contemporary sources present, at best, a mixed record. Contemporary responses from the church have taken the form of policies and guidelines
