Hear Our Voice: A Photo-Elicitation Study to Explore the Social Participation of Older People With Mild/Moderate Intellectual Disability.
Article in Journal of applied research in intellectual disabilities : JARID, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundPeople with intellectual disability are more socially isolated than the general population.
aimsTo explore the social participation experiences and enablers and barriers of older people with mild/moderate intellectual disability.
methodsFollowing co-production of the research with an advocacy group, we purposively recruited people aged over 50 with mild/moderate intellectual disability, using photo-elicitation methods and qualitative interviews, analysed thematically.
resultsWe recruited 14 participants (5 women) from London, UK. Themes were (1) negotiating social belonging in a world of barriers, (2) obstacles go beyond intellectual disability, (3) support must be tailored and personalised. Their experiences of discrimination made them afraid to go out and often to mix with people without disabilities. However, they enjoyed socialising, appreciating variety, social connection and learning.
conclusionPeople with intellectual disability wished to socialise but encountered multiple obstacles. Such barriers limit meaningful community engagement and inclusivity, underscoring the need for interventions to combat isolation.
