Despite the relevance of assessing sexual knowledge in people with Intellectual Disability, there is a lack of appropriate assessment tools to measure this domain. The current study tests the psychometric properties of the new 'Inventory of Sexual Knowledge of people with Intellectual Disability' (ISK-ID).
345 individuals with mild intellectual disability completed the ISK-ID before and after the implementation of a sexual education program. Psychometric properties of the ISK-ID were analysed according to Multidimensional Item Response Theory (MIRT).
Its underlying factorial structure, along with parameters derived from the MIRT (item discrimination, difficulty, and participant's ability), support the use of the ISK-ID as a measure of sexual knowledge. Moreover, the ISK-ID was able to detect changes in the level of sexual knowledge resulting from educational interventions (i.e., responsiveness).
The ISK-ID is an appropriate assessment tool to measure sexual knowledge in men and women with mild intellectual disability.
尽管评估智障人士的性知识具有重要意义，但缺乏合适的评估工具来测量这一领域。当前研究测试了新的“智障人士性知识量表”（ISK-ID）的心理测量特性。
345名轻度智障人士在性教育项目实施前后完成了ISK-ID量表。根据多维度项目反应理论（MIRT）分析了ISK-ID的心理测量特性。
其潜在的因子结构，以及从MIRT得出的参数（项目区分度、难度和参与者能力），支持将ISK-ID用作性知识的测量工具。此外，ISK-ID能够检测出教育干预导致的性知识水平变化（即反应性）。
ISK-ID是测量轻度智障男性和女性性知识的合适评估工具。
