This study is designed to find what effect a sexual self-determination group art therapy program has on the sexual self-determination ability for adults with intellectual disabilities. Twenty four adults with intellectual disabilities in D City who consented(or whose guardians consented) to the purpose of this study were divided into the experimental group of 12 and the control group of 12. The research was conducted in a total of 12 sessions from January 20, 2016 to February 26, 2016 with two sessions performed per week and with each session taking 60 minutes. The research tool was, the scale of sexual self-determination for the general youth prepared by Kang Dul-Soon(2005), which was then properly amended by Kim Yeon-Ju to be applied to the adults having light intellectual disabilities. Repeated measure ANOVA was employed to examine the differences between the two groups. Sexual self-determination group art therapy program had a positive effect on sexual self-determination and all the sub-factors(sexual self-awareness and sexual rights, sexual self-respect, sexual self-expression, respect and refusal of sexual partner, and sexual behavior) for the adults having intellectual disabilities. This study indicates that the sexual self-determination group art therapy program is effective in improving the sexual self-determination ability for adults having intellectual disabilities.
