description The aim of this study was to analyze the content of the textbooks of the pre-professional grade for students with intellectual impairment in terms of independent living skills. The statistical population and the sample consisted of all textbooks (30 books, all compiled in 2009, covering 10 subject areas) provided for students with intellectual impairment. The data were coded and categorized and then analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics in SPSS. The results indicated that 8.54% of the textbooks had content which specifically addressed independent living skills, in which social skills (26.6%) and vocational skills (23.4%) took up the largest portions and child nurturing and caring skills (0.9%) and legal skills (0.8%) took up the smallest portions. We suggest the books should be revised, since they have addressed independent living skills insufficiently and inconsistently whereas they need to prepare students with intellectual impairment for leading an independent life in the society.
