Abstract
Adults with intellectual disabilities experience shame contributing to the development and maintenance of psychological distress and mental health problems which clinicians need to screen for during assessment and provide treatment and support. This literature review developed the understanding of the shaming experiences from the perspective of adults with intellectual disabilities and sets out areas for further research, such as identifying the factors that contribute to shame and interventions and supports that may help.
