| Abstract | In the context of an aging population, it becomes imperative to study this phenomenon on the population with intellectual disability. Despite the great research on children and youths with intellectual disabilities, it lacks information about the transition to adulthood within this population and understanding its lifespan development and aging. The research is mostly quantitative, focused on one part of these people's life, using indirect information, elaborating conceptual models and meager reviews. The main research trends in this International Journal of Developmental and Educational Psychology INFAD Revista de Psicología, No1-Vol.3, 2012.

These are frequently mediated by some factors as: impairment level, etiology, sex and type of residence. Regarding the research, the knowledge about these life steps isn't yet illuminating, once it seems fragmented, static and decontextualized. It seems critical to study the aging phenomenon of the person with intellectual disability in a comprehensive way, understood as a global, complex and context-related path. |
