abstract: 'BACKGROUND: The benefits of successful integrated employment for people
with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are immense.
However, barriers contributing to high rates of unemployment among
people with IDD, such as lack of appropriate training for employers and
inadequate supports, are still widespread. Ensuring access to technology
in the workplace is one method to support employees with IDD and
mitigate those barriers. Furthermore, assistive technology may provide a
simple and cost-effective intervention in the vocational setting.
OBJECTIVE: In this study, we conducted a series of focus groups with
adults with IDD and their family members to explore the use of
technology by individuals with IDD in vocational contexts.
METHODS: We used a qualitative descriptive approach to frame the study
design. Data were analyzed using a multi-cycle thematic coding process.
RESULTS: Four major themes emerged from the analysis: participants''
wireless/wearable technology use, benefits and facilitators of
technology use at work, barriers and challenges to technology use at
work, and expectations for and outcomes associated with technology
supports in the workplace.
CONCLUSIONS: Findings have the potential to impact employer education
and training on benefits of appropriate technology use for individuals
with IDD at work, onboarding and training of individuals with IDD when
using technology at work, and funding responsibility for technology in
the workplace.'
