    Study Notes

    Neurodevelopmental Disorders

    • Conditions beginning in childhood (before school), impacting personal, social, academic, and occupational functioning.
    • Often due to differences in brain development.
    • May involve specific challenges (like focusing difficulties) or broader challenges (like social skills).

    Specifiers for Diagnosis

    • Severity: Some disorders (intellectual developmental disorder, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, specific learning disorder, and stereotypic movement disorder) have severity levels, indicating symptom impact and support needs.
    • Current Symptoms: For disorders like ADHD, specific learning disorder, and persistent motor or vocal tic disorder, specifiers describe current experiencing symptoms to track how they evolve over time.
    • Associated Medical/Environmental Factors: Autism spectrum disorder and stereotypic movement disorder might have specifiers noting genetic conditions, medical issues, or environmental factors like toxin exposure, to understand potential causes and their impact on the disorder and/or treatment.

    Intellectual Developmental Disorder (intellectual disability)

    • Onset during development, involving intellectual skills (reasoning, problem-solving, learning) and adaptive functioning (everyday skills like communication, independence, and social participation).
    • Diagnosis relies on clinical assessment and standardized testing of intellectual functions and adaptive functioning skills
      • Deficits in conceptual, social, and practical domains.
    • Three Criteria are needed for diagnosis:
    • Deficit in intellectual functioning: Difficulty with reasoning, problem-solving, planning, judgment, and learning in school/everyday life.
    • Problems with Adaptive Functioning: Difficulty with independence in communication, social responsibilities, communication, managing finances, self-care, in various settings.
    • Onset during developmental period: Intellectual and adaptive deficits must begin during childhood/adolescence, not later in life.
    • Severity levels (mild, moderate, severe, profound) categorize the nature and degree of disability by conceptual, social, and practical domains.
