Abstract [en]

This article aims to offer insights into how people living with intellectual disabilities by intraacting with researchers and technology, can inform and improve participation in research and the dissemination of it. It draws upon the experiences from adults with intellectual disabilities and researchers participating in the production of audio-visual material. The audio-visual material was initiated and produced by a team in UK with participants living with intellectual disabilities and was based on an earlier article written by the two researchers. This current article highlights the importance of enabling people with disabilities to participate in the research (in various phases, settings, and ways) and as such also make accountable knowledge claims which can bear effects on the life of people with disabilities in their everyday practices and in relation to technology (such as information and communication technology, ICT). The approach, based on a material-semiotic and intra-actional understanding sheds light on the following questions: How can research be guided so that people with intellectual disabilities, the target groups of the research, become involved as actors and participants in the various phases of research concerning them? Can technology, such as Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), empower people with intellectual disabilities to become involved in research concerning them? And if so, in what ways.
