The Continuum of Support for Building Intimacy Knowledge in College for Students with Intellectual Disability
Stinnett, Chelsea VanHorn; Plotner, Anthony J.; Marshall, Kathleen J.
Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, v59 n6 p472-486 Dec 2021
Postsecondary education (PSE) programs allow for college students with intellectual disability to experience a higher level of autonomy in choice making, which they may not have experienced in their family home or high school. This includes choice making related to romantic and sexual relationships. The "Continuum of Support for Intimacy Knowledge in College Survey" (CoSIK-C) was used to examine how PSE programs support college students in building their intimacy knowledge. Types of resources and services used to build intimacy knowledge and the frequency and context in which support was provided were identified and varied across programs. Implications for practice and future research are provided.
