Computerised cognitive–behavioural therapy for adults with intellectual disability: randomised controlled trial

Abstract: Despite the evidence base for computer-assisted cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) in the general population, it has not yet been adapted for use with adults who have an intellectual disability.To evaluate the utility of a CBT computer game for adults who have an intellectual disability.A 2 × 3 (group × time) randomised controlled trial design was used. Fifty-two adults with mild to moderate intellectual disability and anxiety or depression were randomly allocated to two groups: computerised CBT (cCBT) or psy… Show more
