No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Depression is common, but no psychological interventions have been tested to see if they work for adults with severe intellectual disabilities. The research team recently successfully completed a full-scale trial of a psychological intervention, BeatIt, for depressed adults with mild/moderate intellectual disabilities. The aim of this study is to comprehensively evaluate the feasibility of modifying BeatIt for depressed adults with severe intellectual disabilities, collecting the information needed on likely recruitment, measures, and waiting list control arm options, to design a full-scale study.
