Impact of the intellectual disability severity in the Spanish Personal Outcomes Scale.

This paper focuses on the uses and interpretations of the results of the QoL measurements in the Personal Outcomes Scale. The results indicate that, in our sample, when people with high levels of ID are assessed, the functioning of some items are affected by the severity of this disability. For correct use, these items must be interpreted on the basis of the results obtained. Additionally, it is necessary to thoroughly review the QoL indicators for persons with severe or profound ID.
