Abstract: Background: Physical activity (PA) is a key determinant of physical and mental health in people with intellectual disabilities (ID), but its relationship with psychological and emotional well-being in young adults remains underexplored. This study aimed to analyze the association between PA levels and different dimensions of psychosocial well-being in young adults with ID, with particular emphasis on aspects relevant to physiotherapy practice in the field of adapted physical activity.
