    Study Notes

    Developmental Disabilities Overview

    • A developmental disability is an umbrella term encompassing various specific diagnoses.
    • To qualify as a developmental disability, a disorder must have three specific components.

    Causes and Examples

    • Developmental disabilities can arise from genetic factors, injuries, or both.
    • Cerebral palsy is categorized as a developmental disability, while meningitis and pneumonia are not.

    Functional Limitations

    • Developmental disabilities may result in functional limitations, though not necessarily in all four types: physical, mental, emotional, and behavioral.

    Autistic Spectrum Disorders

    • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is diagnosed at three levels: Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3.
    • Individuals diagnosed with ASD Level 1 may not have previously been diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Disorder, NOS.
    • The two domains relevant to ASD are behavior and social communication skills.

    Co-occurring Conditions and Symptoms

    • Individuals with Autism can also be diagnosed with other developmental disabilities.
    • High rates of anxiety are common among those with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

    Behavioral Characteristics

    • A common repetitive behavior is spinning in circles.
    • For an Autism diagnosis, communication differences must be social in nature.

    Notable Figures in Autism

    • Temple Grandin is an author with Autism who writes about the experiences of individuals with Autism versus neurotypical individuals.

    Treatment and Interventions

    • Interventions for Autism that lack empirical support and may pose risks are classified as pseudoscientific.

    Intellectual Disabilities

    • Intellectual disability must manifest in childhood and indicate deficits in IQ and adaptive behavior.
    • IQ is measured by IQ tests, which can be impacted by language skills.

    Adaptive Behavior

    • Adaptive behavior includes conceptual, practical, and social skills.
    • The understanding of how to use money is a conceptual skill, whereas the decision to give money is a social skill.

    Terminology and Stigma

    • The term "retarded" is considered inappropriate and disrespectful when referring to individuals with intellectual disabilities.

    Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

    • ADHD is categorized into three types: predominantly inattentive, predominantly hyperactive, and predominantly impulsive.
