简要总结
Depression is common, but no psychological interventions have been tested to see if they work for adults with severe intellectual disabilities. The research team recently successfully completed a full-scale trial of a psychological intervention, BeatIt, for depressed adults with mild/moderate intellectual disabilities. The aim of this study is to comprehensively evaluate the feasibility of modifying BeatIt for depressed adults with severe intellectual disabilities, collecting the information needed on likely recruitment, measures, and waiting list control arm options, to design a full-scale study.

结局指标
主要结局
Change from baseline on the Mood, Interest and Pleasure Questionnaire (MIPQ) at 24 weeks
时间窗: Baseline and week 24
A measure of the individuals mood and engagement in activities. The score range for each sub-scale is 0 - 24. Total score range is 0 - 48. Lower scores indicate lower mood and lower levels of interest and pleasure (within the last 2 week)
Change from baseline on Intellectual Disabilities Depression Scale (IDDS) at 24 weeks
时间窗: Baseline and week 24
This is a 38-item behavioural checklist derived from DSM-III-R criteria, designed to measure the frequency of identified depressive behaviours within a four-week period. Each item is scored on a 7-point Likert scale from 0 (never) to 6 (always). All scores are summed to provide a total score, ranging from 0 to 228. Higher scores indicate a higher frequency of depressive symptoms.
次要结局

- Change from baseline on the Modified Index of Community Involvement (ICI) at 24 weeks(Baseline and week 24)
