Abstract

Firstly, this study set out to investigate nurses’ attitudes towards individuals with intellectual disabilities and establish if mental health nurses held more positive attitudes towards individuals with intellectual disabilities than generic nurses.
Secondly, this study sought to determine if more recent contact with individuals with intellectual disability had any influence on nurses attitudes; here the research incorporated ‘the contact hypothesis’ philosophy.
