本研究的目的是评估新工具“性知识评估”(ASK) 的组成部分，并用它来评估智力障碍成年人的性知识。 ASK 由知识部分、态度部分、快速知识测验和有问题的社会性行为清单组成。 96 名智力障碍成年人样本参与了这项研究。知识部分进行了两次（测试之间间隔一到两周）以检查其重测可靠性。评估者间的可靠性是通过为大约三分之一的参与者设置第二个评分者来确定的。还进行了快速知识测验（QKQ），以检查其与知识部分的关系。这项研究的结果表明，ASK 是一种对所有审查员都可靠的工具，并且还会引起随着时间的推移而稳定的反应。知识部分和 QKQ 之间的关系表明 QKQ 是 ASK 中知识分数的预测因子。在智障人士的知识方面，结果表明他们对性的整体知识较差，特别是在性传播感染、性健康、安全性行为、法律问题和避孕等领域。
The aims of this study were to evaluate components of a new tool, the Assessment of Sexual Knowledge (ASK), and to use it to assess the sexual knowledge of adults with intellectual disability. The ASK consists of a Knowledge Section, an Attitudes Section, a Quick Knowledge Quiz and a Problematic Socio-Sexual Behaviours Checklist. A sample of 96 adults with intellectual disability participated in the study. The Knowledge Section was administered twice (with a one to two week interval between testing) to examine its test-retest reliability. Inter-rater reliability was determined by having a second scorer for approximately a third of participants. The Quick Knowledge Quiz (QKQ) was also administered to examine its relationship with the Knowledge Section. The results of this study suggest that the ASK is a tool that is reliable across examiners and will also elicit responses that are stable over time. The relationship between the Knowledge Section and the QKQ indicated that the QKQ is a predictor of knowledge scores in the ASK. In terms of people with intellectual disability's knowledge, the results demonstrated their poor overall knowledge of sexuality, particularly in the areas of sexually transmitted infections, sexual health, safer sex practices, legal issues and contraception.
