Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Children with Intellectual Disabilities: Improving Emotional and Behavioral Outcomes
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy has been seen to improve children with Intellectual Disabilities because it addresses the child’s feelings and behavior due to practical tasks. Fynn et al. (2023) state that children with intellectual disabilities can quickly develop anxiety since they struggle with communication and may also have low intelligence. In their systematic review, they identified that most of the cognitive behavioral therapy interventions for reducing anxiety consisted of cognitive restructuring and relaxation techniques, two methods that have shown considerable effectiveness. Kulnazarova et al. (2023) also demonstrated that cognitive behavioral therapy improves the individuals' mood, interpersonal relationships, and social interactions. In their randomized research, the subjects diagnosed with intellectual disabilities showed significant improvements in self-regulation, cooperation, and communication within role-play and group contexts. Both stress that it is helpful, but its efficiency should be individualized to meet the needs of children with intellectual disabilities.
Cognitive behavioral therapy plays a pivotal role in fulfilling the mental health needs of children with intellectual disabilities beyond behavioral and medicinal interventions. Hronis et al. (2020) have noted that 50% of children with intellectual disabilities present symptoms of comorbid mental illness. Therefore, there is a need to identify and implement optimal psychological interventions. In this context, the function of cognitive behavioral therapy is a little broader. Also, it involves the process of identifying and linking thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and using various adaptations like the use of graphic aids, simplification of the process into stages, and role play. One of the critical aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy is the active participation of parents. Hronis et al. (2020) mentioned that parents can contribute to therapy at home, assist in completing homework, and provide encouragement during the session. This active involvement of parents enhances the therapy's effectiveness and makes them an integral part of the process. Thus, cognitive behavioral therapy bridges treatment and application, helping children with intellectual disabilities develop the appropriate emotional literacy and problem-solving skills. Sauter et al. (2023) expand on the discussion of cognitive behavioral therapy for children with intellectual disabilities by presenting the AAIDD framework for cognitive behavioral case formulation, which provides a systematic approach to delivering cognitive behavioral therapy best suited for children with mild intellectual disabilities. It is particularly suitable to have this framework in mind when referring to the work by Hronis et al. (2020), when the authors pointed out that some aspects of intellectual disabilities were not well managed during the parent–therapist talks when discussing and implementing cognitive behavioral therapy.
Another advantage of cognitive behavioral therapy with children with intellectual disabilities is that it helps them deal with their feelings, thus improving emotional management, whereby the basic foundation of managing behaviors and overall child wellbeing is more robust. Te Brinke et al. (2022), in their study conducted with adolescents with mild intellectual disabilities or borderline intellectual functioning, indicated increased emotional regulation when the cognitive modules were trained before the behavioral activities. This sequence prepared the participants with cognitive activities before they started with more effective behavior practices. Hronis (2021) also pointed out that there is data to support the idea that children with intellectual disabilities who could not access cognitive therapies in the past may benefit from cognitive behavioral therapy in the case of the interventions made at the child's mental age. These studies also demonstrate that when emotional regulation is improved through cognitive behavioral therapy, children are also helped to decrease externalizing behaviors and are given skills that enable them to relate successfully in social and academic domains.

The effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy for individuals with an intellectual disability and anxiety: A systematic review. Journal of Intellectual Disability Research, 67(9), 816-841. https://doi.org/10.1111/jir.13046
This systematic review underscores the potential of cognitive behavioral therapy in alleviating anxiety in individuals with intellectual disabilities. The study reveals that cognitive behavioral therapy can significantly reduce anxiety symptoms in these populations, albeit with necessary modifications to address cognitive limitations. The authors' target audience is the academic and clinical community, mainly professionals in mental health and intellectual disability services. Their viewpoint is empirical, rooted in a comprehensive review of existing studies, with minimal discernible bias. In comparison to Hronis (2021), which delves into broader progress in cognitive behavioral therapy for people with intellectual disabilities, this source hones in on the therapy's success specifically for anxiety. It is a beacon of hope for parental involvement in a school improvement plan, demonstrating how tailored therapy can enhance students' emotional well-being and, in turn, improve learning outcomes. The review's strength lies in its comprehensive scope, but its reliance on available research may limit its generalizability due to sample size constraints.

This article provides an overview of the progress and challenges in using cognitive behavior therapy with individuals with intellectual disabilities. Hronis explores the advancements made over the past few decades, offering a broad review that includes adaptation methods necessary for effective treatment. The article is aimed at researchers and practitioners in cognitive therapy and intellectual disabilities. Hronis brings a clinical psychology perspective, with some bias toward the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy in this population. When compared to Fynn et al. (2023), Hronis' work takes a more comprehensive historical and theoretical view, discussing a broader range of cognitive and behavioral issues rather than focusing narrowly on anxiety. The article is helpful for school improvement plans as it suggests cognitive behavioral therapy can enhance emotional and social development, positively impacting academic performance. Strengths include its broad overview, while its weaknesses lie in its lack of specific case study analysis.

This study delves into parents' perspectives on the potential for children with intellectual disabilities to engage in cognitive behavior therapy. It underscores the pivotal role of parent involvement in therapy success, demonstrating that parents are instrumental in identifying treatment goals and facilitating therapy sessions. The article is tailored for clinicians, researchers, and educators interested in child therapy and parental involvement. The authors adopt a clinical viewpoint and seem supportive of parent-driven therapy adjustments, but there is a potential bias as the study is based primarily on parental reports. Compared to Kulnazarova et al. (2023), which focuses on broader social adaptation skills, this article emphasizes parental involvement more strongly. The study is highly relevant to school improvement plans that seek to enhance parental participation, a critical factor in the educational development of children with disabilities. The study's strength lies in highlighting the crucial role of parents, while the limitation is its small sample size.

Kulnazarova and colleagues explore how cognitive therapy can enhance social adaptation skills and interpersonal relationships in children with intellectual disabilities. The authors emphasize that cognitive therapy has the potential to foster social growth by improving communication and problem-solving abilities. The study is aimed at educators, therapists, and researchers, offering practical insights into improving social outcomes in therapy. The authors’ perspective is empirical, although they focus more on social adaptation than emotional regulation, potentially introducing a bias. Compared to Te Brinke et al. (2022), which examines emotional regulation, this source is valuable for school improvement plans seeking to enhance social integration. Its strengths include its focus on social skills, while a limitation is its narrow focus on a specific group, making generalization more difficult.

An AAIDD-informed framework for cognitive behavioral case formulation and cognitive behavior therapy for young people with mild intellectual disabilities or borderline intellectual functioning. Clinical Psychology: Science and Practice.
Sauter et al. propose an AAIDD-informed framework that helps tailor cognitive behavioral therapy for young people with mild intellectual disabilities or borderline intellectual functioning. The framework emphasizes individualized case formulation, which ensures therapy aligns with specific cognitive capacities. The article is intended for clinical practitioners and mental health professionals. The authors are clear proponents of cognitive behavioral therapy and may show some bias toward the model’s flexibility and success with mild ID. Compared to Hronis et al. (2020), which highlights parental perspectives, Sauter et al. focus on the practitioner's perspective. This source is helpful for school improvement plans that include individualized support for students with cognitive challenges. A key strength is its detailed framework, while a weakness is the lack of extensive empirical testing.

Cognitive Therapy and Research, 1-17. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10608-021-10261-1
This study explores how cognitive behavioral therapy can improve emotional regulation in adolescents with intellectual disabilities and externalizing behavior problems. The authors investigate the sequence effects of cognitive behavioral therapy interventions, contributing to a better understanding of which therapeutic elements work best. The intended audience is clinical psychologists, educators, and researchers. The authors’ approach is unbiased mainly, with empirical evidence supporting their claims. Compared to Kulnazarova et al. (2023), which focuses on social adaptation, this article concentrates on emotional regulation, offering complementary insights into behavioral development. This source is valuable for school improvement plans that address students' emotional and behavioral issues. Its strengths include detailed empirical data and practical recommendations for therapy sequencing. However, a limitation is that it focuses narrowly on one type of behavior, potentially limiting broader applicability.
