Abstract

Students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who attend inclusive postsecondary education (IPSE) programs gain many new and beneficial skills, including independent living, social, and employability skills. Another skill set that may be strengthened by attending an IPSE program is self-determination. There is limited research available identifying the impact of IPSE programs on self-determination growth. We addressed this gap by using a longitudinal study designed to examine the changes in self-determination levels of students with IDD across 3 years in an IPSE program. Data collected from 23 students with IDD at 4 points of time within 3 years showed that there was an increasing trend in students’ self-determination levels at the end of each year. The difference was highly significant between the baseline and the end of the third year. This suggests that IPSE programs can play a critical role in the improvement of the self-determination levels in students with IDD. Implications and future research are discussed.

智力和发育障碍大学生自主发展的纵向研究

参加包容性中等后教育（IPSE）项目的智力和发育残疾（IDD）学生获得了许多新的有益技能，包括独立生活、社交和就业技能。参加IPSE项目可以加强的另一项技能是自决。关于IPSE项目对自主成长的影响，现有的研究有限。我们通过一项纵向研究来解决这一差距，该研究旨在检验IPSE项目中IDD学生在3年内自决水平的变化。从23名IDD学生在3年内的4个时间点收集的数据显示，学生的自决水平在每年年底都有上升趋势。基线和第三年结束时的差异非常显著。这表明IPSE项目可以在提高IDD学生的自决水平方面发挥关键作用。讨论了影响和未来的研究。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
