"At present, everybody has the right to full participation and life in society. One of the important areas of human life includes partnerships and sexuality. However, in persons with intellectual disability, this has been taboo until recently. For some time, researchers have tried to analyse this area both in terms of theory and practical implementation. The monograph deals with partnerships, intimacy and sexuality of people with mental disabilities in the context of the latest knowledge and research results. It defines first the theoretical background, and finally presents the conclusions of a research study implemented by means of quantitative and qualitative methods in the area of sexuality of persons with intellectual disability."-- Provided by publisher.

"This book of reprinted articles from the journal "L'Anně Psychologique" as a whole constitutes a complete history and exposition of the Measuring Scale as Binet left it. In Chapter I the authors show the origin of the Scale and their first methods of attacking the problem. Chapter II describes the first results--a series of test questions arranged in order of difficulty but not yet assigned to definite years. An immense amount of work had been done on this series, and the authors may have been justly proud of what they had accomplished, though it was soon to be largely discarded for a much more useful plan. This was the so called "1905 Tests." Chapter III shows the laborious and painstaking methods of standardization. Nowhere does Binet more clearly show his genius. It is here that he has taught us the method which must be used in all extensions or revisions of the Scale, that lay any claim to scientific value. In Chapter IV he gives us the Measuring Scale for Intelligence--the so called 1908 Scale. It is the most complete statement of the Scale. Chapter V gives some of his later 1911 corrections and revisions--his last word on the subject. In making up this book we have attempted to include everything Binet and Simon wrote explanatory of the Scale. The reader will find many repetitions and some contradictions, and the date of each article should be taken into account in deciding which is the authoritative statement. It has been thought best to include all of these repetitions and contradictions, in order to show the development of Binet's own thought in regard to his Scale. Only in this way does the marvelous work that he did on this subject become fully appreciated"--Introduction. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved).

"The Maze test has now been in use for almost twenty years. During that time it has been widely applied and considerable study has been devoted to its results. The reports of this work are, however, scattered through various publications, so that a comprehensive view of this accumulated experience is hardly possible. Yet at this time, when the instruments of mental diagnosis are being carefully scrutinized, such an inclusive survey is most desirable. Taking the opportunity afforded by a revision of the tests and their scoring and methods of application, I have gathered together in this volume a summary of all important studies in which the Maze test has been used. I have also included herewith some discussion of the nature of intelligence, mental deficiency, methods of mental diagnosis and racial differences, since these are the problems upon which the test results appear to have most bearing"--Preface.

L'ouvrage offre une description poussée des déficiences intellectuelles, basée sur les réalités actuelles comme sur des données historiques et pluriculturelles, tout en apportant au lecteur un ensemble d'informations pratiques qui ont été entièrement actualisées, notamment celles concernant l'évolution des institutions en lien avec la législation, l'organisation des parcours et le vocabulaire. Par cette analyse précise, qui refuse de nier, d'éviter ou de réduire la déficience, l'auteur propose d'entrer dans une réflexion anthropologique et psychologique sur ce sujet dérangeant, y compris sous certains aspects peu abordés tels que la lecture ou la sexualité. Admettre que la déficience se définit comme un écart à la norme ne l'exclut pas de ce qui est humain mais, au contraire, permet de soutenir une position éthique.
