(2007). Descriptive terminology and philosophy concerning ID focuses on levels of support necessary to maximize an individuals ability, rather than strictly on functional limitations. Intellectual disability (ID) is characterized by. A., Eklund, S. J., James, D. R., & Foose, A. K. (2003). Retrieved month, day, year, from www.asha.org/Practice-Portal/Clinical-Topics/Intellectual-Disability/. Augmentative and Alternative Communication, 18(3), 163176. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) do not diagnose intellectual disability (ID) but play a key role in assessing the communication and language skills of individuals with ID. Please see NJCs resource titled Myths About Adult Communicators With Severe Disabilities. The SLPs input may be useful to the medical team when considering comorbidity or differential diagnosis between the two disorders. Providing effective interventions for individuals with severe intellectual disabilities (ID) continues to challenge educators, speech-language pathologists, and other allied health professionals. Thus, functional behavioral assessments should include multiple components in order to identify the antecedents that trigger the behavior and the consequences that maintain the behavior. An FCT approach may be considered with students with ID to replace challenging behaviors with appropriate communication alternatives (Brady & Halle, 1997; Martin et al., 2005; Schmidt et al., 2014). Differential diagnosis between ASD and ID may be challenging as some of the core features of ASD related to social communication and language skills, and presence of restricted, repetitive behaviors may overlap with limitations noted in ID. The clinician can prompt with a question (e.g., What do you want?) or model a request (e.g., Say I need paint). This paper presents goals to develop specific communication skills needed to function independently in the community. Individuals with both ASD and ID may have more difficulty with ToM than those with ID alone (Cceres et al., 2014). This disability originates before the age of 18. Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities Research Reviews, 13(1), 2635. Identification and evaluation of mental retardation. Additionally, LD is not characterized by intellectual limitations. SLPs need to (a) be aware of culturally associated beliefs about the cause of ID, (b) provide person-centered care, (c) build working relationships with caregivers, and (d) address communication barriers (Allison & Strydom, 2009). Intellectual Disability. Global prevalence based on international studies estimated the prevalence of ID in adults ranged from 0.05% to 0.08% (McKenzie et al., 2016). (2016). Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 39(2), 261272. SLPs need to differentiate between ID and other disorders and conditions (e.g., spoken language disorders and hearing loss, selective mutism, and English as a second language) whose communication problems can be attributed mistakenly to ID (e.g., late language emergence and ASD). Although there has been a global movement to encourage deinstitutionalization of individuals with ID and improve access to quality care and social integration, this is not yet a reality in all countries. (2020) also revealed that the following psychiatric disorders were also found to be prevalent in adults with ID: It is important to distinguish signs and symptoms of intellectual disability (ID) from communication differences through case history and comprehensive assessment. Speech and language skills may begin to decline in adults with ID from about the age of 50 years even when dementia is not taken into account (J. E. Roberts et al., 2007). Behavioral interventions and techniques (e.g., differential reinforcement, prompting, fading, and modeling) are designed to reduce problem behaviors and teach functional alternative behaviors using the basic principles of behavior change. Educate communication partners on effective strategies for supporting the use of AAC, where appropriate. American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 121(2), 121138.

K., Lord, C., Risi, S., DiLavore, P. S., Shulman, C., Thurm, A., Welch, K., & Pickles, A. Therefore, SLPs may help make a differential diagnosis between late language emergence and ID or another DD. Formal testing may be required if diagnosis or eligibility has yet to be determined. These limitations will cause a child to learn and develop more slowly than a typical child. The Communication Bill of Rightsoriginally developed by the National Joint Committee for the Communication Needs of Persons With Severe Disabilities in 1992 and updated in 2016recognizes the right of all people to participate fully in communication (Brady et al., 2016). SLPs should consider the role of ABA in communication intervention, particularly because difficulty with prompt dependency and generalization of communication interactions may result. B.

There are prenatal, perinatal, and postnatal causes of intellectual disability (ID). Team models may be multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, or transdisciplinary (see ASHAs resource on collaboration and teaming). significant limitations in intellectual functioning (e.g., learning, reasoning, and problem solving). FCT is a behavioral intervention program that combines the assessment of the communicative functions of problem behavior with ABA procedures to teach alternative responses. It can be caused by injury, disease, or a problem in the brain. Language comprehension is better than production, particularly syntax (J. E. Roberts et al., 2007). SLPs support the linguistic needs to facilitate those connections. (2005). Rates of co-occurring disorders in male and female adults with ID were similar, with 19% and 20%, respectively (Mazza et al., 2020). possible immobility. Growth in early reading skills is influenced by environmental as well as genetic factors (Petrill et al., 2010).
