Abstract

Guessing (not)truthness and feeling (not)competence – sexual violence against people with intellectual disability in narrative of therapists This article is a preliminary presentation of the analysis of the phenomenon of sexual violence against people with intellectual disabilities in the narratives of teachers, therapists and psychologists working with people with intellectual disabilities. The article presents fragments of a research project implemented under the National Science Center Miniatura 2 grant. Interviews were conducted on sexual violence against people with intellectual disabilities with pedagogical and psychological staff. Two categories of analysis were initially separated: the presumption of (un)truthfulness and the sense of (un)competence.
