“…Other researchers have focused on the effects of client characteristics such as cognitive skills, psychological problems, and psychiatric illness on social interactions (Bromley & Emerson, 1993;Emerson, 2003;van Nieuwenhuijzen et al, 2006;Wallander, Dekker, & Koot, 2003). These researchers have tended to emphasise the abilities of the people with an ID or the competencies of staff (Dagnan, Chadwick, & Proudlove, 2000).…”

Background Client-centred models of care emphasise the importance of collaborative working between staff and clients with an intellectual disability (ID). How people with an ID perceive the nature of their engagement with staff is relatively unknown. This study investigated the perceptions of staff and people with an ID about the goals for their meetings and what aspects of the meetings they viewed as important. Method Interviews were carried out with 9 client-staff dyads. Prior to their meeting, staff and clients were asked about their expectations. Afterwards, both parties were asked about what they believed happened during the interaction. The participants' answers were subjected to a thematic analysis. Results People with an ID appreciated the opportunity to tell their story and valued reliable, practical support and advice. A trusting relationship was important to both clients and staff. Only staff viewed promoting clients' autonomy as important. Conclusion Staff and people with an ID appear to differ in their expectations and perceptions regarding regular support meetings.

“…Some studies on aggression in youth prisons support a 'dispositional' or 'import' model, in which inmates' characteristics, such as a propensity to behave aggressively, cause aggression (Delisi et al, 2009;Van Nieuwenhuijzen et. al, 2006).…”

“…The Social Problem Solving Test asks for social problem solving strategies in response to five hypothetical situations on video-tape. The SPT is described extensively in the Van Nieuwenhuijzen et al (2006b) study. The SPT was administered and (double) scored by trained graduate students and a research assistant.…”

For the present study, the NOBAGS total scale was combined with the SPT’s Aggressive Response Generation and Aggressive Response Decision subscales.…”

“…A second important factor in children’s externalizing behavior problems is impaired social information processing, as has been found in samples of children with average intelligence (Crick and Dodge 1994; Matthys et al 1999) and MBID (Van Nieuwenhuijzen et al 2005, 2006b). For example, children with MBID and externalizing behavioral problems generate more aggressive responses to hypothetical conflict vignettes than children with MBID but without behavior problems (Van Nieuwenhuijzen et al 2005).…”

Effectiveness of an Intervention for Children with Externalizing Behavior and Mild to Borderline Intellectual Disabilities: A Randomized Trial

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This study evaluated the effectiveness of Standing Strong Together (SST), a combined group based parent and child intervention for externalizing behavior in 9–16 year-old children with mild to borderline intellectual disabilities (MBID). Children with externalizing behavior and MBID (IQ from 55 to 85) (N = 169) were cluster randomly assigned to SST combined with care as usual or to care as usual only. SST led to a significant benefit on teacher reported but not on parent reported externalizing behavior. SST had significant effects on parent rated positive parenting and the parent–child relationship. The present study shows that a multicomponent group based intervention for children with MBID is feasible and has the potential to reduce children’s externalizing behavior and improve both parenting behavior and the parent–child relationship.
