Independent Monitoring for Quality (IM4Q) data for 9,195 and 9,817 for adult services users with IDD were analyzed across two types of choice. Repeated measures mixed regression examined choice over time after controlling for age, support needs, residence type, and community type.

This study is the first to our knowledge to consider change in choice making, an important indicator of rights and inclusion for persons with IDD.
