BACKGROUND
We explored the accuracy of using the learning disability screening questionnaire (LDSQ) in services for people experiencing homelessness in the United Kingdom.
METHOD
We examined the concordance between the LDSQ outcomes and assessments of intellectual disability. Seventy adults experiencing homelessness completed the LDSQ. Staff completed the LDSQ and a measure of adaptive functioning for 38 of this group. Nine participants received an intellectual assessment.
RESULTS
Sensitivity and specificity for the LDSQ when completed by staff was 83% and 96% respectively and 50% and 92% when completed by the individual. Seven people had intellectual and adaptive functioning in the intellectual disability range.
CONCLUSION
The results suggest that the LDSQ would be an appropriate and beneficial screening tool to use within services for people experiencing homelessness. More accurate results would be likely if it were completed by staff.
背景
我们探索了在英国为无家可归者提供服务时使用学习障碍筛查问卷（LDSQ）的准确性。
方法
我们检查了 LDSQ 结果与智力障碍评估之间的一致性。70 名无家可归的成年人完成了 LDSQ。工作人员为其中 38 人完成了 LDSQ 和一项适应功能的测量。9 名参与者接受了智力评估。
结果
工作人员完成的 LDSQ 的敏感性和特异性分别为 83%和 96%，而个人完成的敏感性和特异性分别为 50%和 92%。有 7 人在智力和适应功能方面处于智力障碍范围内。
结论
结果表明，LDSQ 将是在为无家可归者提供服务中使用的一种合适且有益的筛查工具。如果由工作人员完成，结果可能会更准确。
