ABSTRACT

Introduction: Compared to their non-disabled peers, individuals with mild intellectual disability (MID) are at higher risk of becoming a victim of sexual abuse and more vulnerable to its disruptive effects. This review provides an overview of content and effectiveness of prevention and intervention programs targeting sexual abuse in individuals with MID.

Methods: PRISMA guidelines were followed and quality and effectiveness of the programs were evaluated taking into account the rating of the Quality Assessment Tool for Quantitative Studies (QATQS).

Results: Twelve studies were included. In prevention programs role-play prevailed, whereas the content of intervention programs varied. All studies received a “weak” QATQS rating. By consequence, effectiveness of the program was downgraded to “unclear” in ten, and “ineffective” in two studies.

Conclusion: Further development of programs and higher quality of research is needed to investigate whether they are effective in preventing sexual abuse or reducing its consequences in individuals with MID.

摘要

简介：与非残疾同龄人相比，轻度智力障碍（MID）的人更有可能成为性虐待的受害者，并且更容易遭受其破坏性影响。这篇综述概述了针对MID患者性虐待的预防和干预计划的内容和有效性。

方法：遵循PRISMA指南，并根据定量研究质量评估工具（QATQS）的等级对程序的质量和有效性进行评估。

结果：包括十二项研究。在预防方案中，角色扮演盛行，而干预方案的内容却各不相同。所有研究均获得“弱”的QATQS评分。结果，该计划的有效性被降级为十个“不清楚”，而两项研究则降为“无效”。

结论：需要进一步开发计划并提高研究质量，以调查这些计划是否有效预防性虐待或减轻其对MID患者的影响。
