| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to develop an independent living model for people with intellectual disabilities based on their empirical knowledge and skills. A qualitative analysis of the activities of self-help/self-advocacy groups and a survey of such people’s life histories revealed the following findings. People with disabilities can express their empirical knowledge and skills under the condition of support for self-help/self-advocacy in daily life, namely, independent living programs. Such people’s empirical knowledge and skills, for example, pertain to speaking failure experiences, and distinguishing between doing things by themselves and receiving support from their families. These findings demonstrate the newfound significance of self-help/self-advocacy groups for people with disabilities living in communities.
