“…The rationale of selecting the Reiss Scales for this study were based on: B its good internal reliability and good factor content validity (Reiss and Valenti-Hein, 1990b); B it is a brief mental health screening tool that can be completed by parents and teachers of four-to 21-year-old children with intellectual disabilities; and B parents have been found to be a good source to identify anxiety disorder in children with autism (Sukhodolsky et al, 2008).…”

Purpose -Children and young people with co-morbid intellectual disabilities and autism are more prone to experience mental health problems compared to people with intellectual disabilities but without autism. Children and young people with intellectual disabilities and autism may experience symptoms of anxiety at a greater level than the general population; however, this is not supported with research evidence in relation to the prevalence of anxiety in people with intellectual disabilities and autism. The aim of this study is to identify the prevalence of anxiety disorders in children and young people with intellectual disabilities and autism.Design/methodology/approach -In total, 150 children and young people (age range of 5-18 years) from a metropolitan district in the North of England were screened for anxiety using the Reiss Scales for Children's Dual Diagnosis and the Glasgow Anxiety Scale.Findings -The results indicate that the prevalence of anxiety was 32.6 per cent for children and young people with intellectual disabilities and autism on the Glasgow Anxiety Scale. One of the important questions that arise from this study is the risk factors for the high prevalence of anxiety in children and adolescents with autism.Originality/value -The findings highlight the prevalence of anxiety in children and young people with co-morbid intellectual disabilities and autism. This has implications for assessment of anxiety disorders for children and young people with intellectual disabilities.

š AbstractBackground During the last decade, there has been a growing interest in outpatient support services for persons with intellectual disability (ID) and psychiatric and/or behavioural problems and their families. In this study, we explore the family burden that is associated with children or adults with ID and behavioural or psychiatric problems living at home. Method The research group consisted of  clients of In Casa, a project of outpatient treatment. Their average age is  .  years and their average IQ  .  . The Reiss Screen for Maladaptive Behaviour (adults) or Reiss Scales for Children's Dual Diagnosis (children) and the Nijmegen Family Situation Questionnaire have been administered. Results About  % of the children and  % of the adults living at home and referred to In Casa have severe psychiatric or behavioural problems as measured by the Reiss scales. The dual diagnosis has a more negative impact on the family situation than the condition of ID only.

Caretakers of all consenting subjects completed the RSCDD prior to or at the time of initial evaluation in our clinic.…”
