dc.description.abstract | This paper reviews research on cognitive processes in persons with intellectual
disability (ID) as a prerequisite of the effective application of cognitive-behavioral therapy
in treating mental disorders in these persons. This domain of investigation is important
for the following reasons: persons with ID, according to the results of some studies, are at
greater risk of developing mental disorders, in comparison to persons from the general
population; the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral therapy in treating mental disorders
in persons without ID has been empirically supported; there is some evidence that this
psychotherapy may be effective in persons with ID. Cognitive behavioral therapy aims
to treat emotional problems by using various techniques which lead to changes in false
cognitions and, as a consequence, to changes in dysfunctional emotions and behavior. In
this work we present empirical findings on the following cognitive processes and abilities
in persons with ID: verbal abilities; self-concept; metacognition; recognition and labeling
of emotions; linking events and emotions; discriminating thoughts, feelings and behavior;
understanding the mediating role of cognition in the relationship between situations
and emotional and behavioral responses. Research suggests that persons with mild and
moderate ID are capable to discriminate and label various emotions, and to link events
and emotions, but that they have significant difficulties in understanding the mediating
role of cognitions in emotional problems. Further, persons with ID have constraints in
verbal abilities and in metacognition which impose difficulties on their participation in
psychotherapy. However, several authors express the opinion that it is possible to work
on the development of cognitive abilities which are required for the application of the
cognitive-behavioral approach, and that this work may be a part of psychotherapy. | |
