PROJECT SUMMARY Individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) are at higher risk for abuse than the general population. Increasing numbers of people with ID are living independently in the community with both its benefits and its risks. Many individuals with ID are subjected to physical, sexual, and verbal abuse. Some of the characteristics found in people with ID – short attention span, difficulties with abstract concepts, overly compliant personalities, learning and memory deficits -- increase the likelihood of abuse and its negative consequences. Given the unique learning needs of individuals with ID, there is a pressing need for abuse prevention programs specifically tailored for both men and women with ID. The goal of this project is to develop a comprehensive prevention program – Protect Yourself! Abuse Prevention for People with Intellectual Disabilities -- that will be designed specifically for this population and address their unique learning needs. In Phase I a prototype program was developed that covered the first two units of the shared curriculum and the first unit of the Learning Partner training. In Phase II the complete interactive, multimedia online program will be developed for use by people with ID and their learning partner (LP). The final comprehensive abuse prevention program will consist of nine modules based on research-based prevention approaches for this population The final product will be commercially packaged and include both video material and an accompanying workbook. The completed program will be highly interactive and utilize concrete materials, use video models of appropriate and inappropriate behaviors, provide opportunities for role-playing of the materials, frequently repeat key concepts, and provide visual rather than text-based cues. A unique feature of the program will be the use of a learning partner (e.g., direct support staff, parent, advocate) to help the person with ID learn and practice the information provided in the program.

项目摘要 智障人士（ID）的虐待风险高于 一般人口。越来越多的ID人群独立生活 具有收益和风险的社区。许多具有ID的人受到约束 身体，性和口头虐待。有ID的人中发现的一些特征 - 较短的注意力跨度，抽象概念的困难，过于合规的个性， 学习和记忆定义 - 增加虐待的可能性及其负面的可能性 结果。考虑到具有ID的个人的独特学习需求，有一个紧迫的 需要针对男性和女性量身定制的预防虐待计划 ID。 该项目的目的是制定全面的预防计划 - 保护自己！预防智障人士的虐待 - 那将是 专为该人群而设计，并满足他们独特的学习需求。 第一阶段制定了原型程序，该程序涵盖了该原型的前两个单元 共享课程和学习伙伴培训的第一个单元。在第二阶段 完整的互动，多媒体在线计划将被人们使用 与ID及其学习伙伴（LP）。最终的全面滥用预防 程序将由基于研究的预防方法组成的九个模块组成 对于这个人群，最终产品将被商业化，并包括 视频材料和随附的工作簿。 完成的程序将具有高度互动性，并利用混凝土材料， 使用适当和不适当行为的视频模型，为 材料的角色扮演，经常重复关键概念并提供视觉效果 而不是基于文本的提示。该程序的独特功能将是学习 合作伙伴（例如，直接支持人员，父母，倡导者）帮助ID学习的人 练习程序中提供的信息。
