Abstract: (20 Views)
Life skills are a component that all people with intellectual disabilities face difficulties and challenges in achieving. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is to introduce person-centered planning for people with intellectual disabilities to teach them life skills. The data analysis in the present study was conducted as a systematic review. Its methodology was also based on collecting, classifying, and summarizing the findings of scientific research articles related to person-centered planning from 1999 to 2024, taken from the databases of Google Scholar, Elsevier, Ebasco, Springer, ProQuest, ERIC, and Ibuki, with the keywords of planning, education, life skills, and people with intellectual disabilities. In the initial search, 31 articles were selected for review. Out of 31 articles, 8 were deleted due to being repetitive and overlapping with the topic, 8 were deleted due to being uncitable and short reports, and 15 articles were selected. Out of 31 articles found based on the specified keywords, 15 articles were reviewable and were used in the context of causes and methods of assessment and how to develop a person-centered planning program. The results showed that clinical experiences indicate that creating a person-centered planning protocol is necessary as a new method for teaching life skills to people with intellectual disabilities.
