Carnaby, Steven – Journal of Intellectual and Developmental Disability, 1998
Reviews the literature on the social integration of people with intellectual disability. Describes a support model in Italy which views self-esteem as resulting from the social integration of service users as a peer group rather than as individuals, while encouraging independence in the form of paid employment.
