How should we support families of people with intellectual disability to promote their self-determination? A Delphi study on critical components for intervention.

Background And Aims: Self-determination related skills are central for achieving a life of quality for people with intellectual disability and develop as the person interacts with his/her contexts, such as home. As such, families are crucial agents in supporting the self-determination of their children with intellectual disability, although to date, little is known about how to support those families.

Methods: To address this need, the present study used a Delphi technique to build and reach a consensus on the critical components that should inform interventions targeting families to promote their children's self-determination.
