When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Observational studies are a type of analytical study where researchers observe events without any interventions. In other words, the researcher does not influence the response variable or the experiment's outcome.
There are three types of observational studies – Prospective, retrospective, and cross-sectional.
Prospective Study
Prospective studies, also known as longitudinal or cohort studies, are carried out by collecting future data from groups sharing similar characteristics. One...

Area of Science:

  • Disability Studies
  • Social Work
  • Developmental Psychology

Background:

  • Investigating the feasibility of intergenerational mentoring for youth with intellectual disability (ID).
  • Focusing on skill development and network building for young individuals with ID.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the viability of an intergenerational mentoring program for youth with ID.
  • To identify facilitators and challenges in program implementation and outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Pairing youth with ID with older male mentors for weekly sessions.
  • Utilizing interviews with mentees and mentors, alongside standardized outcome measures.
  • Training mentors to support mentee participation in activities and social interactions.

Main Results:

  • The program was viewed as a significant "opportunity" by both mentees and mentors.
  • Key facilitators and challenges included communication, transportation, and mentor training.
  • Youth with ID experienced difficulties completing self-report measures.

Conclusions:

  • Intergenerational mentoring programs are a viable support for youth with ID during their transition to adulthood.
  • Pilot intervention requires refinement in its rollout strategy for optimal effectiveness.
