Building on this prior work, this study examined the self-reported interpersonal experiences of a national sample of adults born with CL\/P.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Design:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>An online survey was designed by the Cleft Lip and Palate Association in collaboration with the Centre for Appearance Research. Data from 181 participants were included in the present study, collected between July and October 2018. Qualitative data were analyzed using inductive content analysis, while quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and independent t tests.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Most participants reported having good relationships with family members and existing friends with similar patterns of marriage as the general population. However, some experienced difficulties initiating new friendships and romantic relationships. Participants described bullying and discrimination in adulthood, most often in public settings and the workplace. Participants reported lower satisfaction with intimate relationships and less secure attachment compared to the general population. Concerns regarding the heritability of CL\/P and its impact on the decision to have a family were also reported.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Individuals with CL\/P are at risk of negative social experiences, which if not appropriately addressed may impact psychological well-being in adulthood. The findings illustrate the importance of routine psychosocial support from childhood onward to help individuals with CL\/P build social skills, self-esteem, and social confidence and to develop mutually fulfilling friendships and intimate relationships. Additionally, societal campaigns to raise awareness and target discrimination may be helpful.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1055665620987109","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,9]],"date-time":"2021-02-09T01:35:46Z","timestamp":1612834546000},"page":"1412-1421","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Interpersonal Relationship Experiences in Adults Born With Cleft Lip and\/or Palate: A Whole of Life Survey in the United Kingdom"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"58","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8105-3926","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kenny","family":"Ardouin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Cleft Lip and Palate Association, The Green House, London, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Matt","family":"Hotton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Spires Cleft Centre, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1285-691X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nicola Marie","family":"Stock","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Appearance Research, University of the West of England, Bristol, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1055665620987109","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1597\/12-255"},{"key":"bibr2-1055665620987109","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1597\/1545-1569_1998_035_0052_clwowc_2.3.co_2"},{"key":"bibr151-1055665620987109","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1055665619896681"},{"key":"bibr3-1055665620987109","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1597\/1545-1569_2001_038_0126_saicaw_2.0.co_2"},{"key":"bibr4-1055665620987109","volume-title":"Disfigurement in the UK","author":"Changing Faces","year":"2017"},{"key":"bibr5-1055665620987109","unstructured":"Cleft Registry, Audit Network.
