Study Notes
Neurodevelopmental Disorders
- Conditions that begin early in a child's life, usually before starting school
- Result from differences or delays in brain development
- Lead to challenges in personal, social, academic, and occupational functioning
Specifiers for Diagnosis
- Severity: Levels are noted for some disorders (e.g., intellectual developmental disorder, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD) to indicate the impact on daily life and support needs
- Current Symptoms: Specifiers for conditions like ADHD, specific learning disorder, and persistent motor or vocal tic disorder describe current symptoms to track how the disorder is presenting
- Associated Medical or Environmental Factors: For some disorders, a specifier notes whether the disorder is linked to a genetic condition, medical issue, or environmental factor (e.g., brain injury, prenatal exposure to toxins)
Intellectual Developmental Disorder (Intellectual Disability)
- Disorder with onset during the developmental period
- Includes intellectual skills (reasoning, problem-solving, learning) and adaptive functioning (everyday life skills like communication, independence, and social participation)
- Diagnosis is based on clinical assessment and standardized testing of intellectual and adaptive functioning
- Three criteria must be met:
- Deficit in intellectual functioning (difficulty with skills like reasoning, problem-solving, planning, and judgment)
- Problems with adaptive functioning (struggling with independence, social responsibilities, communication, managing daily life)
- Onset during the developmental period (childhood or adolescence)
Global Developmental Delay (GDD)
- Applies to children under 5 who are not meeting developmental milestones in multiple areas (learning, problem-solving, communication, motor skills)
- Used when a child is too young or unable to complete formal tests to measure their intellectual abilities
Unspecified Intellectual Developmental Disorder (F79)
- For individuals older than 5 with intellectual developmental delays, but assessment is difficult due to other factors (sensory impairments, physical disabilities, severe problem behaviors, or mental health issues)
- A temporary diagnosis, used when more time or better tools are needed to evaluate the individual's condition
Communication Disorder
- Difficulties with speech, language, or communication that significantly impact the ability to express, understand, or interact effectively
- Can involve issues with speech (articulation, fluency, voice), language (vocabulary, grammar, sentence structure), and communication (social or pragmatic skills)
Language Disorder
- Persistent difficulty in understanding, acquiring, and using language effectively
- Includes issues with vocabulary, grammar, sentence structure, and discourse
- Interfering with academic, social, and occupational functioning
Speech Sound Disorder (SSD)
- Difficulties with speech sound production that impact intelligibility
- Characterized by consistent articulation errors that are incongruent with a child's age or developmental stage
Childhood-Onset Fluency Disorder (Stuttering)
- Condition involving difficulty with the flow and timing of speech
- Characterized by repetitions, prolongations, broken words, and/or circumlocutions
- Symptoms must appear in early childhood (not adulthood) and not due to another condition (e.g., neurological damage)
