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).

Intensive programs total from 25 to 40 hr per week for 13 years. (2010b). 108-446, 20 U.S.C. Without conducting a functional behavioral assessment or incorrectly identifying the function of the behavior, it may lead to an unsuccessful intervention. Historically, intellectual disability (previously termed "mental retardation") has been defined by significant cognitive deficitswhich has been established through a . Preferred practice patterns for the profession of speech-language pathology [Preferred practice patterns]. It indicates a failure to achieve age-appropriate developmental milestones (Battaglia & Carey, 2003; Petersen et al., 1998). Each individual with intellectual disability (ID) has a unique profile, based on their level of language functioning as well as functioning in areas related to language and communication, including the following: Intervention considers strengths and needs in all areas to ensure individualized treatment and supports.

They may need continued support to facilitate a successful transition to adulthood. Functional skills are those skills a student needs to live independently. There are endless number of life skills IEP goals out there, it's just a matter of finding what your student and their family want to focus on.

Characteristics may include the following: Other conditions that may also co-occur with ID include the following: Individuals with ID may have more health problems than others in the general population, often because of inadequate health care, limited access to quality services (Krahn et al., 2006; van Schrojenstein Lantman-de Valk & Walsh, 2008), and communication limitations (Gentile et al., 2015).

Based on data from the 2011 meta-analysis of international studies, the female-to-male ratio of children and adolescents with ID varied between 0.4 and 1.0 (i.e., four to 10 females with ID for every 10 males with the condition; Maulik et al., 2013). Assessment for AAC and/or other assistive technology. 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. Definition: Intellectual disability is a disability characterized by significant limitations both in intellectual functioning and in adaptive behavior, which covers many everyday social and practical skills. However, it is possible for a person to have both LD and ID. In some cases, an IQ cutoff score is used (e.g., 70) as a criterion for diagnosis, whereas in other cases, the diagnostic criteria are more qualitative in nature (e.g., onset in childhood with limitations in adaptive behavior and intellectual functioning).
