Communication intervention for ID focuses on interactions that may occur within an individuals natural environment to reflect social norms of their community. Coggins, T. E., Timler, G. R., & Olswang, L. B.

A., Coleman, P. P., Kalman, S. L., & Yoder, D. E. (1991). Individuals with Fragile X syndrome often have pragmatic language difficulties (Abbeduto & Sterling, 2011). Receptive vocabulary analysis in Down syndrome. This assumption is a concern when applied to individuals with disabilities in general and to individuals with ID in particular (Casby, 1992; Cole et al., 1990; Notari et al., 1992). United Statesbased studies reported the prevalence of ID to be 7.9 per 1,000 adults (L. L. Anderson et al., 2019). gain sensory input (sensory reinforcement). Ellis Weismer, S., Venker, C. E., & Robertson, S. (2017). 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). Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 56(1), 295309. Make decisions about the management of communication disorders. Use of visual supports to increase task independence in students with severe disabilities in inclusive educational settings. 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. https://doi.org/10.1177/026565909901500105. With extra guidance and preparedness, students with intellectual disabilities can acquire and benefit from these skills in their practical life (Spooner, 2015). (2010). In J. K. Luiselli, D. C. Russo, W. P. Christian, & S. M. Wilczynski (Eds. See ASHAs Practice Portal page on Augmentative and Alternative Communication for further information. For example, the time delay between initial instruction and any additional instruction or prompting is gradually increased as the individual becomes more proficient at the skill being taught. Objectives are the steps you take to get there. Students with language learning disabilities are at a disadvantage in school due to having reduced/limited background knowledge and language proficiency as compared to typically developing peers. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mppsy.2009.06.008, American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. 2 For example, the mean age of death for a person with an intellectual disability . However, the aging process may be premature in adults with ID as compared with the general population (e.g., Lin et al., 2011). https://doi.org/10.1111/1467-8527.t01-1-00058, White, G. W., Simpson, J. L., Gonda, C., Ravesloot, C., & Coble, Z. (2009). Students with intellectual disabilities are among the least likely students to spend a significant amount of time in general education classrooms. Milieu therapy is a range of methods (including incidental teaching, time delay, and mand-model procedures) that are integrated into a childs natural environment. Definitions of ID have changed from being strictly IQ based to including strengths in adaptive behavior (Schalock et al., 2021; Tass, 2017). complex tasks (e.g., shopping, transportation, care organization, meals, money management), genetic syndromes (e.g., Down syndrome and Fragile X syndrome), maternal disease (e.g., placental disease), environmental influences (e.g., alcohol, other drugs, toxins, teratogens), labor and deliveryrelated events (leading to neonatal encephalopathy), seizure disorders (e.g., infantile spasms), toxic metabolic syndromes and intoxications (e.g., lead, mercury). However, it is possible for a person to have both LD and ID. Defining language delay in young children by cognitive referencing: Are we saying more than we know? https://doi.org/10.1352/0895-8017(2005)110[268:AIAWID]2.0.CO;2, Carr, D., & Felce, D. (2000). The purpose of this study was to examine how 14 parents of children with autism and intellectual impairments responded to an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)-based psychological flexibility intervention programme.

Physical health of patients with intellectual disability. Most healthy adults will not experience problems with eating, drinking, and swallowing, despite age-related changes in the muscles used for feeding and swallowing (Lazenby, 2008). https://doi.org/10.15585/mmwr.ss6904a1, Mahoney, G., & Perales, F. (2005). ABA has been used for individuals with ID, particularly those who also have ASD (e.g., Spreckley & Boyd, 2009). People with this condition experience significant limitations with intellectual functioning and developing . For full participation, the Communication Bill of Rights identifies access to functioning augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) and other assistive technology services and devices as necessary at all times. These disorders affect how the brain, spinal cord, and nervous system function, which can affect intelligence and learning. Service-learning is a form of experiential learning that blends classroom instruction with community service. Educational Psychology, 25(23), 287304.

Students will be able to practice appropriate social interactions in various . Teaching a child with autism and severe language delays to reject: Direct and indirect effects of functional communication training. Eligibility is an area that has continued to evolve as the rights of individuals with ID have been increasingly well recognized. Fidler, D. J., Most, D. E., & Philofsky, A. D. (2009). Behavioral interventions range from one-to-one, discrete trial instruction to naturalistic approaches. The scope of this page is centralized content about individuals with an intellectual disability (ID) and associated communication difficulties across the life span. https://doi.org/10.1177/1098300712470519, Schwartz, I. S., Boulware, G.-L., McBride, B. J., & Sandall, S. R. (2001). Cognitive referencing is the practice of comparing IQ scores and language scores to help determine eligibility for SLP intervention. For example, peer interactions, use of social media, and communication skills needed to optimize acceptance and relationship development may be important to teenagers with ID. It is important for individuals with ID to have the opportunity for literacy intervention, including a focus on phonological processing/word decoding and reading comprehension (Barker et al., 2013). (2015). This intervention utilizes 6 main components. Down Syndrome Research and Practice, 12, 3744.

The AAIDD definition is consistent with the diagnostic criteria for Intellectual Disability (Intellectual Developmental Disorder) in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed. Efficacy of applied behavioral intervention in preschool children with autism for improving cognitive, language, and adaptive behavior: A systematic review and meta-analysis. However, information gathered during SLP evaluation and treatment may be useful to medical professionals who may diagnose ID.

Infant-Toddler Intervention: The Transdisciplinary Journal, 8(2), 109125. May have hearing loss (Rosenbaum & Rosenbloom, 2012). Individuals with ID commonly experience stigmatization, discrimination, and health inequalities across cultures (Allison & Strydom, 2009). Stuttering is more prevalent (Eggers & Van Eerdenbrugh, 2018). Relevant research indicates that language intervention benefits children with ID even when no languagecognition discrepancy exists (Carr & Felce, 2000; Cole et al., 1990; Snell et al., 2010). Please see Treatment Principles for Individuals with an Intellectual Disability for further information. A comprehensive assessment may include the following, depending on the age and functioning of individuals with ID and their needs: Details regarding the components of a comprehensive assessment are available on the following Practice Portal pages: See also ASHAs Practice Portal pages on Autism Spectrum Disorder and Social Communication Disorder for relevant assessment considerations based on individual needs for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and ID.

Milieu language teaching and other related procedures offer systematic approaches for prompting children to expand their repertoire of communication functions and to use increasingly complex language skills (Kaiser & Roberts, 2013). The SLP helps maximize independent functioning in aging adults with ID. Understanding the communicative intention of challenging behaviors serves as the basis for replacing problem behaviors with more appropriate communication skills, including AAC, that would serve the same functions (see the Functional Communication Training (FCT) subsection in the Treatment section).
