Description

Explore a deep look into the complexities of intellectual disability through this academic volume. This book examines the core characteristics of intellectual disability, which involves deficits in cognitive and adaptive abilities that typically manifest before the age of 18. Readers will gain insight into the prevalence of these conditions, which affect an estimated 1 to 3 out of every 100 individuals in the general population. The text addresses the reality that while most individuals have mild intellectual disability with unidentified causes, a small percentage face severe deficits requiring lifetime supports. This resource covers the essential requirements for diagnosis, including the necessity of formal psychometric testing to assess intelligence quotient and adaptive functioning. It serves as a valuable addition to the Disability Studies series for those studying public health and medical issues.
