Phase 1a: using consensus methods, an intervention adaptation group was formed who met to adapt the intervention, appraise candidate outcome measures, and contribute to the development of the intervention fidelity checklists and logic model. Phase 1b: a national online survey was conducted with professionals to characterise treatment-as-usual. Phase 2: this was a single-group non-randomised feasibility study designed to model the intervention to test intervention feasibility and acceptability, outcome measures, and aspects of the research process.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\nSetting<\/jats:title>\nParticipants were recruited from National Health Service community adult learning disabilities teams in England.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\nParticipants<\/jats:title>\nParticipants aged 16 and over with a diagnosis of autism, moderate to severe learning disabilities, an anxiety disorder, and a carer who was available to take part in the intervention. For those who lacked capacity to make a decision about taking part, a consultee had to provide advice that the participant should be included in the study.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\nInterventions<\/jats:title>\nThe intervention comprised 12 sessions alongside treatment-as-usual.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\nMain outcome measures<\/jats:title>\nThe feasibility and acceptability of the intervention and research processes, outcome measure completion rates, and intervention adherence.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\nResults<\/jats:title>\nThe intervention was successfully adapted and modelled with 28 autistic participants with moderate to severe learning disabilities. The intervention was judged to be feasible and acceptable by autistic adults with learning disabilities, carers, and therapists. Carers and therapists suggested minor intervention revisions. Carers completed 100% of outcome measures and the missing data rate was low; however, they indicated that some of the questions were repetitive and said they had difficulty responding to some items. The use of the Mental Capacity Act, 2005, led to an average 5-week delay to participant enrolment. The accrual rate was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and improved during the summer and early autumn of 2022.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\nLimitations<\/jats:title>\nRandomisation was not modelled within this feasibility study, although carers and therapists indicated that this would be acceptable.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\nConclusions<\/jats:title>\nThe BEAMS-ID intervention and associated study processes were judged to be feasible and acceptable. The intervention required minor revision.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\nFuture work<\/jats:title>\nThe BEAMS-ID intervention should be tested further within a trial.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\nStudy registration<\/jats:title>\nThis study is registered as ISRCTN12637590.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\nFunding<\/jats:title>\nThis award was funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Health Technology Assessment programme (NIHR award ref: NIHR129804) and is published in full in Health Technology Assessment<\/jats:italic>; Vol. 28, No. 72.
