Abstract:
Individuals with mental retardation are at a greater than average risk of developing psychiatric disorders. Many of these individuals are being seen by rehabilitation counselors through various community settings. The accurate diagnosis of psychopathology within this at-risk population helps the rehabilitation counselor to develop and implement appropriate service delivery. Thus, the diagnostic process is a critical aspect of the counseling process. This article examines diagnostic issues and challenges for determining psychopathology in individuals with mental retardation. Aspects of mental retardation that influence the diagnostic process, assessment measures, the importance of the clinical interview, and implications for rehabilitation counselors who are working with this population are also addressed.

Abstract:
The concept of diagnostic overshadowing has historically been applied only to clients with mental retardation. The possibility that diagnostic overshadowing impacts other disability categories was explored in this study. This study examined the robustness of diagnostic overshadowing bias when applied to rehabilitation counselor judgments about clients with physical disabilities, as well clients with mental retardation. A total of 89 rehabilitation professionals were presented with a case scenario which was identical except for the specific disability condition described. The professionals then completed a questionnaire that related to diagnostic impressions and treatment recommendations. Diagnostic overshadowing was exhibited with both mental retardation and physical disabilities. However, no overshadowmg was noted for treatment recommendations.

Abstract:
From its inception, the public vocational rehabilitation program has focused on efforts to assist Americans with physical and mental disabilities, through a variety of services, to become gainfully employed and self-reliant. This article describes a study in which the rehabilitation outcomes (i.e., closure status & weekly earnings) of persons with mental retardation were analyzed. Six predictor variables were used to predict one dichotomous and one continuous criterion variable: closure status and weekly earnings. Results are presented for each criterion variable, and the implications of the findings for service and research are discussed.

Abstract:
Work, leisure and retirement are fundamental aspects of life for individuals with an intellectual disability, just as with the general population. Many educational efforts have taught knowledge and skills to persons with an intellectual disability to improve their functioning in the work and leisure domains. More recently, retirement concerns have become particularly salient because so many individuals now live much longer. The present study looked at using a conceptual approach to improve education in these three domains. It employed the principles that instruction works much better when it proceeds from an individual=s existing concepts and that instruction should teach useful concepts that an individual can apply to improve his or her real world functioning. This conceptual approach has not been used much with the education of persons with an intellectual disability. In Study 1, sixty adults with an intellectual disability were interviewed to determine their existing concepts of work, leisure and retirement and their work and leisure histories. Most had solid concepts of work and leisure, but with some gaps, particularly in notions of volunteer work and occupational status. Most reported satisfactory work and leisure lives. Most had a relatively poor concept of retirement at best and had done little or no retirement planning. These data suggested some key targets for an educational program to improve their knowledge and functioning in these domains. In Study 2, these data were used to develop an instructional program that focussed on gaps in knowledge of volunteer work, banking, budgeting and participation in satisfying leisure activities and in retirement planning. This instructional program was delivered over eight weeks to a class consisting of nine adults with an intellectual disability, with some success. This general conceptual approach can be usefully applied to teaching in other important domains with persons with an intellectual disability. They can be taught key concepts which they can use to live their lives more purposely and independently.

Abstract:
Normalization of persons with mental retardation has been a national goal for the past twenty-five years, and deinstitutionalization is the driving force to the attainment of this goal. Small group homes, or community based facilities, are viewed as a viable alternative to institutionalization. The sponsors of group homes have encountered neighborhood opposition to such an extent that specialized approaches for neighborhood entry have been developed. However, the efficacy of these entry approaches has received little empirical attention. The purpose of this study was to investigate entry approaches employed by sponsors of group homes in their attempts to locate in local communities. Structured personal interviews were conducted with sponsoring agency officials, managers of the group homes, area housing authorities, and persons residing in neighborhoods where group homes for persons with mental retardation were located during the months of May, June, and July, 1985. Individual case studies regarding seven group homes established in a large county in the state of North Carolina have been presented. Grouped data have also been reported in the attempt to investigate the efficacy of entry approaches the literature is currently advocating.

The purpose of this study was to explore the transition-service condition and needs of the adults with severe mental retardation in the Taipei Municipal Yang-Ming Rehabilitation Facility. In this survey study, the researcher collected data from 322 clients with mental retardation who were over 15 year olds through a self-developed scale “The Transition Service Scale for Adults with Mental Retardation.” The scale consists of five construct factors: ”Individual Living and Adaptive Behavior,”” Social and Personal Relationship,” “Occupational Education and Training,”” Recognition of Functional Skill,” and “Activity and Leisure Time” through the examination of factor analysis. The data answered by care staffs in the facility based on their daily observation of their clients were then analyzed through stepwise multiple regression, ANONA and descriptive analysis. The findings of the study were as followings: 1. Services offered and transition needs for adults with mental retardation The data of the study indicated that the most important construct of transition-service offered by the facility was “Individual Living and Adaptive Behavior,” the second was the “Social and Personal Relationship,” the third was “Recognition of functional skill,” and “Occupational Education and Training” is the least transition service offered. The most important transition-service needs construct was “Individual Living and Adaptive Behavior,” the second was “Social and Personal Relationship,” the third was “Recognition of Functional Skill,” and the least construct of needs was “Occupational Education and Training”. 2. The differences within career transition services and needs The differences between the transition services offered by the staff and the needs required by the clients were statistically significant in the following items: four respective variables (i.e. gender, groups, identification, the level of mental retardation) in the basic data of the scale, six variables (i.e. individual living care, movement ability, health condition, oral obstruction, movement obstruction, using assistant equipment) in physical-condition data, and one variable (i.e. rehabilitation service) in professional-service data of the scale. 3. The predictable variables on transition services and needs In prediction of transition services offered, the five construct factors have statistically significant relationship with the 15 variables (e.g. gender, identification, the level of mental retardation) respectively and the correlations of prediction were from 0.23 to 0.41. In terms of transition service needs, five construct factors have statistically significant relationship with the 15 variables (e.g. gender, identification, the level of mental retardation) respectively and the correlations of prediction were from 0.2 to 0.39. Discussions over findings of the study were offered and some suggestions were made on the institution of rehabilitation, and for the future study.

Abstract:
The study aimed at giving a thick description of African families' experiences, views, cultural beliefs and interpretations of traumatic brain injury (TBI), and making recommendations for rehabilitation. It was conducted from the qualitative research paradigm, adopting a phenomenological research method. Twenty-two pairs of participants (patients and their caregivers )were interviewed about their perception of TBI. The semi-structured interviews were conducted at the participants' homes in Sesotho, and where necessary in their home languages. The consequences of TBI were found to follow universal trends (Oddy, 1984). However, participants' perceptions, as shaped by their experiences, views and cultural beliefs, were found to be unique. On analysing the gathered data, using inductive data analysis, it was found that African families' interpretations of TBI were based on beliefs about witchcraft, thwasa, Satanism, ancestral anger and God's wish. Based on these findings, rehabilitation services in the form of education, advocacy, networking and family therapy are recommended.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of implementing community based care for moderately mentally retarded persons in a specific centre in the Port Elizabeth area. The objectives of the study were to identify • the needs of the moderately mentally retarded children. • the physical, psychosocial and vocational rehabilitation means of meeting these needs. • how involved the communities, parents and government were in the care of moderately mentally retarded children. A quantitative, exploratmy and descriptive design was used. A sample of 50 moderately mentally retarded children was utilised. Data were collected by means of questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The major research findings indicate that community care for MMRPs could only be feasible with sufficient resources, expertise and community involvement. All these aspects appeared to be lacking in the centre where this research was conducted raising questions as to benefits which the mentally retarded children and their parents and the community could derive from these services. However recommendations were made on identified shortcomings, problems and needs.

Abstract:
In recent years, focused studies have highlighted increasingly the importance of using new technologies during the planning of educational and didactic paths to develop skills and functions in disabled patients. They deal with assistive technologies that represent real opportunities of e-participation and social life. They also work as scaffolding in order to promote developing processes for an inclusive didactics. This chapter moves in such direction: about the importance of technologies in mental retardation. This importance turns around the usability of many inputs, which can offer to disabled patients the possibility to exercise their cognitive styles, their own characteristics, and their own autonomies to increase motivation and self-esteem. A didactic application of educational software, based on Precision Teaching method, is proposed in order to: a) verify the effectiveness of this didactic software on learning of integrative skills and b) verify gender differences. For this study, 40 children were selected (20 boys and 20 girls) with and without mental retardation. Results show learning improvements in each group; in spite of students' difficulties, the use of Precision Teaching seems to have reduced significantly the initial cognitive gap, which refers to the number of correct responses (accuracy) and to response time (fluency) relative to the learning of how to use money. Finally, new perspectives of its pedagogical and rehabilitative application for students with special needs are also discussed.
