We conducted feasibility testing of a novel peer mentoring intervention addressing self-awareness and proactive coping for young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and co-occurring mental health conditions. Aligned with regulatory flexibility theory, we hypothesised that if young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and co-occurring mental health conditions learned a range of coping strategies, then they would have greater self-efficacy for managing their emotions and, subsequently, decreased mental health symptoms.

为有智力和发育障碍以及同时发生的心理健康状况的年轻人提供同伴指导计划的可行性

我们对一种新颖的同伴指导干预进行了可行性测试，该干预旨在解决患有智力和发育障碍以及同时发生的心理健康状况的年轻人的自我意识和主动应对。与监管灵活性理论相一致，我们假设，如果有智力和发育障碍以及同时发生的心理健康状况的年轻人学会了一系列应对策略，那么他们将有更大的自我管理情绪的自我效能，从而降低心理健康症状。
