The importance of early intervention for children who are at high risk for communication disorders cannot be overstated. Timing refers to the scheduling of intervention relative to the diagnosis. The application of skills to new and appropriate situations is reinforced as naturally as possible as such situations occur (Kalyva & Avramidis, 2005; Whitaker et al., 1998). LEAP uses a variety of strategies and methods, including ABA, peer-mediated instruction, self-management training, prompting, and parent training. (2006). B. Additionally, LD is not characterized by intellectual limitations. Research and Practice for Persons with Severe Disabilities, 24(3), 133146. A medical practitioner or team may have difficulty making a diagnosis of ID or ASD due to similarities and comorbidity between the two conditions. Per the Institute of Medicine (US) Committee on Nervous System Disorders in Developing Countries (2001), DD is a set of limitations that begin in infancy or childhood, with delays in reaching developmental milestones or limitations in one or more of the following domains: The Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 2000 defines or characterizes DD as follows: Lifelong, early-onset conditions that result in substantial functional limitationsbut not necessarily concomitant intellectual limitationsinclude autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or cerebral palsy. https://www.aaidd.org/intellectual-disability/definition, American Psychiatric Association.

Individuals with ID may experience challenges in acquiring the skills necessary for independent living and achieving success in postsecondary education/training programs, employment settings, and social situations. SLPs screen for hearing, speech, language, communication, and swallowing problems. McNeil, M. R. (2009). For example, a physical therapist and an SLP may work together to improve respiratory support, which can, in turn, enhance speech production and intelligibility. The effect of instructional use of an iPad on challenging behavior and academic engagement for two students with autism. Definition of the challenging behavior and the antecedent and consequent variables hypothesized to motivate them (Dunlap & Fox, 1999; Lucyshyn et al., 2002; Schwartz et al., 2001). Family-centered care is well suited to individuals with intellectual disability (ID) because of the complexity of their health, educational, vocational, and community living challenges across settings and over time. (2005). These differing aspects of personal and social identity and how they converge are known as intersectionality. What are Functional Goals. World Health Organization. Specific: Be discrete in goal designing. In J. Lucyshyn, G. Dunlap, & R. Albin (Eds. Individuals with ID have limitations in intellectual functioning and adaptive behavior, whereas individuals with ASD have a wide range of intellectual abilities and adaptive behavior. They also have difficulty with speech production due to low muscle tone and characteristic facial features (Berglund et al., 2001; J. E. Roberts et al., 2007). https://doi.org/10.1111/jar.12200, Berglund, E., Eriksson, M., & Johansson, I. Problem behaviors can be eliminated through extinction, the gradual weakening of a conditioned response (i.e., withholding reinforcers). Characteristics may include the following: Fragile X syndrome is the most common inherited cause of ID (Lozano et al., 2014). Each subsequent objective should lay out a condition, the desired . Responsiveness to the child's communicative attempts. the diagnosis of a communication disorder or delay secondary to ID; a description of the characteristics and severity of the communication disorder or delay; a determination of the effect of communicative situation/contexts on performance; the identification of a possible hearing loss; recommendations for intervention and support; the recommendation of a communication system (e.g., speech-generating device); a referral to other professionals as needed, such as, recommendations for support for parents, caregivers, teachers, and employers; and. A cascade of disparities: Health and health care access for people with intellectual disabilities. Communication abilities in individuals with ID vary and may be nonsymbolic (e.g., gestures, vocalizations, specific behaviors) and/or symbolic (e.g., words, signs, pictures). Intractable & Rare Diseases Research, 3(4), 134146. varied communication settings/contexts, such as, early communication skills (e.g., pointing, turn-taking, joint attention), pragmatic conventions (spoken and nonspoken) for communicating appropriately in varied situations, spoken and written language for social, educational, and vocational functions, increased complexity of spoken and written language for more effective communication, contextual factors that influence the individuals relative success or difficulty in a given activity, compensatory communication techniques and strategies, including the use of AAC or other assistive technology. (2007). https://doi.org/10.1044/0161-1461(2008/025). Individuals with ID commonly experience stigmatization, discrimination, and health inequalities across cultures (Allison & Strydom, 2009).

Content for ASHA's Practice Portal is developed through a comprehensive process that includes multiple rounds of subject matter expert input and review. See the Service Delivery section of the Intellectual Disability evidence map for pertinent scientific evidence, expert opinion, and client/caregiver perspective. Growth in early reading skills is influenced by environmental as well as genetic factors (Petrill et al., 2010). 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). This is in no way meant to be a document to just copy and paste from. https://doi.org/10.1177/026565909901500105. Review of auditory, visual, motor, and cognitive status, including hearing screening. Overall pooled prevalence of approximately 37% of adults with ID had a co-occurring psychiatric disorder. Intellectual disabilities and hearing loss. SLPs ensure that intervention provides ample opportunities for communication and incorporates. Increased prevalence of hearing loss has been reported in individuals with ID as compared with the general population. Functional skills are those skills a student needs to live independently. For example: The professional roles and activities in speech-language pathology include clinical/educational services (assessment, planning, and treatment); prevention and advocacy; and education, administration, and research.

Intellectual disability 1 involves problems with general mental abilities that affect functioning in two areas: Intellectual functioning (such as learning, problem solving, judgement). Team members determine strengths and limitations in adaptive functioning and collaboratively determine the levels of support needed across conceptual, social, and practical domains. 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. Intellectual disability in cerebral palsy: A population-based retrospective study. Better health, better lives: Children and young people with intellectual disabilities and their families. 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/10.1111/j.1469-7610.2009.02204.x, Reid, S.

Haebig, E., Sterling, A., Barton-Hulsey, A., & Friedman, L. (2020). A state of double jeopardy: Impact of prenatal alcohol exposure and adverse environments on the social communicative abilities of school-age children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. SLPs may be part of a team making a differential diagnosis between ID and autism spectrum disorder or other conditions. Screen individuals who may have hearing, speech, language, communication, and/or swallowing difficulties and determine the need for further assessment and/or referral for other services. Herer (2012) found that the prevalence of hearing loss in noninstitutionalized adults with ID was higher than for individuals in the general population and that the hearing loss occurred at a much younger age. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcomdis.2005.02.004. https://doi.org/10.1044/gero19.1.36, Lee, M., Bush, L., Martin, G.

SLPs need to differentiate between ID and other disorders and conditions (e.g., spoken language disorders and hearing loss, selective mutism, and English as a second language) whose communication problems can be attributed mistakenly to ID (e.g., late language emergence and ASD). Gathering information from parents, caregivers, teachers, and co-workers regarding skills and concerns about the dialect(s) and/or language(s) used. Using informal measures, such as those designed by the clinician and tailored to the population being screened (e.g., age, developmental level, language[s] used). Direct speech and language therapy for children with cerebral palsy: Findings from a systematic review. Importance of Setting Goals Andrew Carnegie once said, ''If you want. ABA is a treatment approach that uses principles of learning theory to bring about meaningful and positive change in behavior. See ASHAs Preferred Practice Patterns for the Profession of Speech-Language Pathology for a more detailed outline of the major components of communication intervention for individuals across the life span (ASHA, 2004). Using a speech- generating device to enhance communicative abilities for an adult with moderate intellectual disability. In M. J. Guralnick (Ed. Cognitive referencing is the practice of comparing IQ scores and language scores to help determine eligibility for SLP intervention. For example, individuals with Down syndrome may be at higher risk for earlier onset of dementia when compared with the general population (Burt et al., 2005; Hawkins et al., 2003). Appropriate roles for SLPs include the following. R. L., Balboni, G., Bersani, H., Borthwick-Duffy, S. A., Spreat, S., Thissen, D., Widaman, K. F., & Zhang, D. (2017).

Early intensive applied behavior analysis intervention for autism. Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report Surveillance Summaries, 69(4), 112. 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. Individuals with ID of all ages are eligible for SLP services because enhancement of communication skills is needed to function effectively, regardless of age or cognitive level relative to communication abilities. The focus of prior studies was to review and discuss health care disparities across racial/ethnic groups. Augmentative and Alternative Communication, 18(3), 163176. However, information gathered during SLP evaluation and treatment may be useful to medical professionals who may diagnose ID. These teams establish and coordinate services that are family centered, culturally appropriate, comprehensive, and compassionate and that produce meaningful life outcomes. Psychiatry, 8(9), 355357. Computer technology (e.g., tablets) and/or computerized programs can be used to teach communication and social skills (e.g., Bernard-Opitz et al., 2001; Neely et al., 2013). [PDF], World Health Organization. very basic nonverbal communication. In P. B. Sullivan (Ed. American Journal on Mental Retardation, 110(4), 268284. (2014). Video-based instruction (also called video modeling) is an observational mode of teaching that uses video recordings to provide a model of the target behavior or skill. Such models may serve to prepare persons with ID for transitions to independent living and working (White et al., 2010). https://doi.org/10.1007/s10803-007-0357-5, Cone-Wesson, B.

C., Coggins, T. E., Olson, H. C., & Astley, S. J. act appropriately in various settings (e.g., Cohen & Demchak, 2018). Focused stimulation is a treatment approach in which a child is given multiple examples of a specific target (e.g., vocabulary item) within meaningful contexts. The multifaceted team also includes families, caregivers, and persons with disabilities. Down syndrome: Common otolaryngologic manifestations. Lack of linguistically appropriate measures and awareness of cultural influences on assessment, layered with the inherent bias in the evaluation process, results in disproportionality in Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities. A variety of approaches may be selected based on individual strengths and needs. Defining language delay in young children by cognitive referencing: Are we saying more than we know?

The Down syndrome behavioural phenotype: Taking a developmental approach. Language impairments in children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. Comprehensive assessment includes a hearing screening and referral for a complete audiological assessment if hearing concerns are indicated. They may need continued support to facilitate a successful transition to adulthood. ABA techniques are often used in intensive, early intervention (before the age of 4 years) programs to address a full range of life skills (e.g., Frea & McNerney, 2008). Children with autism and peer group support: Using circles of friends. British Journal of Special Education, 25(2), 6064. Speech disfluencies in children with Down syndrome. The Communication Bill of Rightsoriginally developed by the National Joint Committee for the Communication Needs of Persons With Severe Disabilities in 1992 and updated in 2016recognizes the right of all people to participate fully in communication (Brady et al., 2016). Both formal and informal assessment approaches can be used. According to the 42nd Annual Report to Congress on the Implementation of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA; U.S. Department of Education, 2021), the percentages of students, aged 621 years, receiving IDEA services under the category of ID within each racial/ethnic group are as follows: Of the children with autism spectrum disorder, 33% were identified with ID (Maenner et al., 2020).

Provider refers to the person offering the treatment (e.g., SLP, trained volunteer, caregiver). (2021). Research in Developmental Disabilities, 32(2), 419436. SLPs support the linguistic needs to facilitate those connections. Following the individuals lead, attempts to communicate are reinforced as these attempts get closer to the desired communication behavior (McGee et al., 1999). The use of incidental teaching may be effective in increasing engagement in children with disabilities (Casey et al., 2012). This lesson explores four essential components in educational goal setting for students with intellectual disabilities. https://doi.org/10.1177/108835769701200205, Burt, D.
