The global burden of psychiatric care of intellectual disabilities/intellectual developmental disorders (IDD) remains unaddressed in general. The aim of this study was to explore the knowledge and attitudes of general adult psychiatry practitioners in Turkiye.
A self-administered cross-sectional survey was conducted to gather information regarding the medical and postgraduate training experiences, views, and attitudes towards IDD ( = 265).
Among the respondents, 47.9% reported receiving some training on IDD in medical school, and 75.4% during residency training. Almost all respondents felt strongly that further specialty training would be beneficial. Majority of respondents indicated that they would be willing to see patients with IDD despite finding it difficult to diagnose/manage their co-occurring mental disorders. The most common mental health problem endorsed was 'challenging behaviour'. The most prescribed psychotropic medication class was antipsychotics.
The results of the study highlight need for training, normalization, and enhancement of community inclusion in IDD.
总体而言，智力残疾/智力发育障碍（IDD）的全球精神科护理负担仍未得到解决。本研究的目的是探讨土耳其普通成人精神科医生的知识和态度。
进行了一项自我管理的横断面调查，以收集有关医学和研究生培训经历、对IDD的看法和态度的信息（n = 265）。
在受访者中，47.9%报告在医学院接受过一些关于IDD的培训，75.4%在住院医师培训期间接受过培训。几乎所有受访者都强烈认为进一步的专科培训将是有益的。大多数受访者表示，尽管发现难以诊断/管理共病的精神障碍，但他们愿意接诊IDD患者。最常见的被认可的心理健康问题是“挑战性行为”。最常开具的精神药物类别是抗精神病药。
研究结果强调了在IDD方面进行培训、正常化和加强社区融合的必要性。
