functional language goals for intellectual disabilities

Simply reporting data on health care disparities may leave the false impression that biological markers create those disparities. Setting refers to the location of treatment (e.g., home, community-based, work). (2007). https://doi.org/10.1111/jar.12233. (2016).

This paper presents goals to develop specific communication skills needed to function independently in the community. B. Serve as an integral member of a team working with individuals with ID and their families/caregivers and, when appropriate, considering transition planning. For example, evaluators determine if failure to recognize a photo of a party reflects word retrieval challenges or is due to an unfamiliar representation of a party to an individual. https://doi.org/10.1002/mrdd.20098, Kurtz, P.

Team models may be multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, or transdisciplinary (see ASHAs resource on collaboration and teaming). Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 39(2), 261272. (1998). SLPs may need to consider the possibility of mild cognitive impairment, a condition characterized by subtle cognitive decline that may lead to dementia (see ASHAs Practice Portal page on Dementia), if treating adults with ID with new communication concerns. Participate as a member of the school or adult service planning team to determine appropriate educational and/or community services. How often do you take data? These changes reflect the movement away from a medical model and institutionalization and toward inclusive practices, self-advocacy, and self-determination. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2788.2008.01115.x, Cheslock, M. A., Barton-Hulsey, A., Romski, M. A., & Sevcik, R. A. 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). Scope of practice in speech-language pathology [Scope of practice]. Individuals with ID have intellectual deficits as well as deficits in adaptive functioning that include conceptual, social, and practical domains (APA, 2013). For children with ID and other DDs, intervention may focus on factors influencing cognitive development and social competence (e.g., Guralnick, 2017; Mahoney & Perales, 2005). Deficits are more severe for boys than for girls (Haebig et al., 2020). [PDF], World Health Organization. Communication Disorders Quarterly, 33(4), 252260.

See ASHAs Practice Portal page on Late Language Emergencefor further information. 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). (2013).

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). LEAP is implemented in a classroom setting consisting of children with ASD and typically developing peers and is designed to support child-directed play. 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).

Definitions of ID have changed from being strictly IQ based to including strengths in adaptive behavior (Schalock et al., 2021; Tass, 2017). SLPs need to (a) be aware of culturally associated beliefs about the cause of ID, (b) provide person-centered care, (c) build working relationships with caregivers, and (d) address communication barriers (Allison & Strydom, 2009). https://doi.org/10.1007/s10803-007-0357-5, Cone-Wesson, B. https://doi.org/10.1352/1934-9556-57.5.421, Barker, R.

Circle of friends is a treatment approach that uses the classroom peer group to improve the social acceptance of a classmate with special needs by setting up a special group or circle of friends. The focus is on building behaviors that are valued in everyday settings. Global prevalence based on international studies estimated the prevalence of ID in adults ranged from 0.05% to 0.08% (McKenzie et al., 2016). https://doi.org/10.1016/S1071-9091(98)80012-0, Petrill, S.

Responsiveness to the child's communicative attempts. Children with Down syndrome often have specific limitations in expressive syntax relative to semantics. very basic nonverbal communication. 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.

C., Coggins, T. E., Olson, H. C., & Astley, S. J. Studies reported results based on gender; however, there were no indications whether the data collected were based on sex assigned at birth, gender identity, or both. SLPs should consider the role of ABA in communication intervention, particularly because difficulty with prompt dependency and generalization of communication interactions may result. Following the individuals lead, attempts to communicate are reinforced as these attempts get closer to the desired communication behavior (McGee et al., 1999).

Delayed speech and language acquisition (Cone-Wesson, 2005; Terband et al., 2018). However, information gathered during SLP evaluation and treatment may be useful to medical professionals who may diagnose ID. Difficulty with narrative discourse (Colle et al., 2008). 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.

However, the aging process may be premature in adults with ID as compared with the general population (e.g., Lin et al., 2011). These individuals may have physical, programmatic, or communication Stuttering is more prevalent (Eggers & Van Eerdenbrugh, 2018). https://doi.org/10.15585/mmwr.ss6904a1, Mahoney, G., & Perales, F.

Cultural differences in the attitudes, beliefs, and perceptions of individuals with ID are well documented within the United States and in other countries (Allison & Strydom, 2009; Scior, 2011; WHO, 2010a). Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 50(2), 459474. Background paper for World Health Organization Conference, Bucharest, Romania. Individuals with ID require substantial family support and advocacy. Examples of such considerations follow: Persons with ID and their families are integral to assessment, goal selection, and treatment. Clarke, M. E., & Gibbard, W. B. Common challenging behaviors include aggressive, disruptive, self-injurious, and stereotypic behaviors. The definitions of ID and related terminology have evolved over time to reflect the legal and social gains made by individuals with such a disability and their families. The National Joint Committee for the Communication Needs of Persons With Severe Disabilities (NJC) emphasizes that there are no prerequisites for communication (NJC, 2002a, 2002b).

Associated health conditions with higher prevalence in individuals with ID include the following: Addressing health inequalities as well as providing adequate health care and medical training may improve quality of life and increase longevity in individuals with ID. Other characteristics include the following: Fetal alcohol syndrome is a congenital syndrome resulting from alcohol exposure in utero. SLPs determine which options are appropriate by taking into consideration the individuals age, language profile, communication needs, factors related to language functioning, the presence of coexisting conditions, communicative opportunities and partner supports, linguistic needs, cultural background and values, and available research evidence.

Guralnick, M. J. Expansion of those skills and ensuring that appropriate communication skills are used effectively in different contexts and that the challenging behavior is extinguished. 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). https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2015.302903a, Hart, J.

Therefore, SLPs may help make a differential diagnosis between late language emergence and ID or another DD. Rates of co-occurring disorders in male and female adults with ID were similar, with 19% and 20%, respectively (Mazza et al., 2020). See ASHAs Practice Portal page on Transitioning Youth for further details. (2021). Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 56(1), 178210. When they are included, they may spend their time on non-academic learning experiences. It's all about getting to know your student, their future goals, and collaborating with parents/caregivers on what areas they find important. More severe disabilities are more likely to result in early identification of ID (Daily et al., 2000). Individuals with Fragile X syndrome often have pragmatic language difficulties (Abbeduto & Sterling, 2011). (2010a, November). Intervention for individuals with ID typically incorporates a variety of options and techniques in combination. Support individuals with ID in vocational and community settings.
