The Learning Disabilities Team, led by Dr Soni Bhate, @livewellsw are proud to be working on the @PETALProgramme study with our colleagues @UCL below. Personalised treatment package for those with #LD and aggressive behaviour. 1st participant and carer recruited @NIHRSW.
Excellent work from @alister_baird and hope it’ll contribute to a sparse literature on physical environment influences on #id and disruptive behaviour; only 6/67 papers were on #id @UCLMentalHealth @UCLPsychiatry @NickTyler4 #eiriniflouri @PETALProgramme – at Islington, London
7000+ articles screened, 250+ full texts assessed, 67 finally included papers across 40+ physical environmental exposures, 2+ years of work, see below for our systematic review on the effects of children’s physical environment on aggression outcomes 👇
