Abstract

L’obiettivo della presente integrative review consiste nel fornire una mappatura dei programmi di transizione scuola-lavoro rivolti a giovani adulti con disabilità intellettiva realizzati nell’ultimo decennio. I programmi discussi in letteratura potrebbero, infatti, informare potenziali percorsi nel contesto italiano. Tramite il processo di revisione sistematica abbiamo inizialmente identificato il divario nella ricerca, maggiormente focalizzata sull’età infantile e adolescenziale che sull’età adulta delle persone con disabilità intellettiva, e in particolare rispetto ai programmi di transizione al lavoro e alla vita adulta. Per far fronte alla necessità di un approfondimento dei programmi basati su studi empirici, è stato impiegato il metodo della integrative review, perché in grado di contribuire all’individuazione di pratiche educative basate sull’evidenza. L’analisi e la sintesi dei risultati degli studi selezionati hanno consentito di individuare sei ricerche, che sono state inseguito valutate dal punto di vista della qualità. I risultati sono stati discussi e le implicazioni per future ricerche in questo ambito messe in luce, al fine di arricchire il dibattito sui programmi di transizione rivolti a giovani adulti con disabilità intellettiva.
