- Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the Swedish version of the Let's Get Organized (LGO-S) intervention, aiming to support time-management habits and organizational skills, by exploring possible enhancements in time management skills and satisfaction with daily occupations, in people with time-management difficulties due to intellectual disability.Method: A pre-test post-test design study including 23 adult participants with mild intellectual disabilities who reported difficulties in daily time management affecting their functioning in daily life negatively. Instruments used: Assessment of Time Management Skills (ATMS-S), Weekly Calendar Planning Activity (WCPA-SE) and Satisfaction with Daily Occupation measure (SDO-13). Intervention: The group intervention contained ten occasions one per week. Data was collected pre-and post-intervention, and 3- and 12-months follow-ups.Results: The main preliminary findings were significant changes, post-intervention and at 3- and 12-months follow-ups in organization and planning, and at the 3-month follow-up in time management skills. The results at 12-month follow-up indicated sustainability in outcomes measured by ATMS-S. A non-significant but positive trend was observed in other outcomes between pre- and post- intervention.Conclusions: Improvement with indicated sustainability in in organization and planning and in time management skills might be possible for persons with intellectual disabilities when participating in LGO group intervention.
