As the number of adults with mental retardation and concomitant psychological difficulties living in the community increases, so does the need for effective outpatient psychotherapy services. Despite this need, the relevant literature base is sorely lacking. This article is a brief review of this literature with regard to psychodynamic, behavioral, and group psychotherapy approaches. On the basis of this review, a research agenda is offered concerning future directions. Last, because of the lack of a rich database regarding effective treatment approaches for such individuals, this article includes a description of a model of clinical decision making that is geared to aid the practicing clinician in designing clinical interventions for adults with mental retardation.
随着生活在社区中的患有智力障碍及伴随心理问题的成年人数量增加，对有效的门诊心理治疗服务的需求也在增加。尽管有这种需求，但相关的文献基础却严重匮乏。本文简要回顾了有关心理动力学、行为和团体心理治疗方法的这方面文献。基于这一回顾，提出了一个关于未来方向的研究议程。最后，由于缺乏关于此类个体有效治疗方法的丰富数据库，本文介绍了一种临床决策模型，旨在帮助执业临床医生为患有智力障碍的成年人设计临床干预措施。
