Current Practices

Persons with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) have the right to participate in research with dignity and respect. Information about persons with IDD is often acquired from third parties; however, they are capable of, and want to be included in, research. Nevertheless, current practices to protect persons with IDD from harm may preclude them from participating in research. Therefore, inclusive research requires ethical and practical considerations to ensure that persons with IDD are treated fairly. In this chapter, experiences and recommendations in four aspects of ethical research with persons with IDD are shared: (1) accessibility, (2) consent, (3) confidentiality, and (4) research participation risks. Interactions with research ethics boards are used to illustrate the complexity of these ethical considerations and the need for guidelines.

Individuals With Intellectual Disabilities

Interactive digital art can be a beneficial therapeutic intervention for a variety of populations, but specifically for the population of intellectual and developmental disabilities. Interactive digital art uses the engagement of the participant to create a digital form of art. The purpose of this literature review is to explore the effects that interactive art has on individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Interactive arts discussed were used in a variety of settings ranging from sand art, to using video games, or interactive art exhibits. Sand art and other digital painting methods were proven to be beneficial in improving cognitive functioning and social aspects of those with intellectual disabilities. While exploring the various settings, participant feedback was given in association with using interactive digital art.
