The Checklist of Challenging Behaviour and its relationship with the Psychopathology Inventory for Mentally Retarded Adults.
The Checklist of Challenging Behaviour (CCB) was developed to survey the prevalence of challenging behaviour among people with intellectual disability. It describes 32 behaviours, and data are collected on the frequency, management difficulty and severity of these states. The present paper reports on the relationship between challenging behaviour (as measured by the CCB) and mental health (as measured by the Psychopathology Inventory for Mentally Retarded Adults). In addition, it discusses the differences between the two groups of clients used in the study, i.e. hospital and community subject groups, in terms of challenging behaviour and mental health.
