We examined the frequency with which qualitative studies have been published in three major intellectual disability journals over a decade, and we considered attempting a systematic review or a meta\u2010synthesis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The volume of published studies has increased, but there were too many across a diverse range of topics for a systematic review of qualitative research in general; but not enough for a systematic review or meta\u2010synthesis with a particular focus. However, there were many issues that needed to be aired. This paper therefore contains some critical reflections on the use of qualitative methods.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>If we want to hear the voices of people who have ID then we need appropriate ways to do this. Qualitative methods are playing an increasing role in bringing the unknown about people who have ID into the known. The approach plays a valuable role in informing us about the experiences and lives of people who have ID. However, we have identified many methodological issues which will need to be further explored. At the same time, we need to develop methods to enable increased participation of people who have ID in some aspects of research. The participatory paradigm is more established in qualitative approaches as it lends itself to participation in generating research questions, developing interview questions, conducting interviews and even stages of the analysis. There are clearly areas that need to be addressed by trained researchers and the whole process will need some facilitation and support. Writing up for journals is one aspect that could be very problematic: so other forms of dissemination need to be explored.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jar.12088","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,5]],"date-time":"2014-02-05T05:12:59Z","timestamp":1391577179000},"page":"85-96","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":122,"title":["Using Qualitative Methods in Research with People Who Have Intellectual Disabilities"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"27","author":[{"given":"Nigel","family":"Beail","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Barnsley Adult Learning Disabilities Specialist Health Service South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust Barnsley UK"},{"name":"Department of Psychology Clinical Psychology Unit University of Sheffield Sheffield UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katie","family":"Williams","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Barnsley Adult Learning Disabilities Specialist Health Service South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust Barnsley UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_15_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-3148.2006.00312.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2788.2009.01188.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-3148.1988.tb00006.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_5_1","first-page":"7","volume-title":"Learning Disability: A Life Cycle Approach","author":"Atkinson D.","year":"2010"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/09687599727498"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_7_1","first-page":"186","article-title":"Outcome of psychoanalysis, psychoanalytic and psychodynamic psychotherapy with people with intellectual disabilities","volume":"13","author":"Beail N.","year":"1995","journal-title":"Changes"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/9780470713198.ch27"},{"key":"e_1_2_15_9_1","volume-title":"Qualitative Methods in the Social Sciences","author":"Berg B.
