DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES (DD):
DEFINITION

Diverse cluster of individuals with chronic barriers related to mental and/or
physical conditions with severe impairment in their level of functioning. The
areas must common affected is with their daily life activities such as
independent living, mobility, self care and direction, languagecommunication, socio-economical self assistance, learning and relationalinteraction with others.

HISTORY OF DD

Derogatory Connotations

Past Forms Society Dealt with DD Population

Asylums

18th-19th century: Large organizations providing basic needs

1952: Development of workshops for Special Ed Teachers as well as Day Camps

1960: Elimination of asylums

1970: “The Developmental Disabilities Service and Facilities Construction Act of
1970”

ETIOLOGY

UNKNOWN.

Efforts to track the disorders are inconclusive

Some disorders are more common with the existence of certain medical
conditions

COMMON DENOMINATORS/FEATURES FOUND
TO CO-EXIST IN DD POPULATION IN MY

POOR IMPULSE CONTROL

Frequently related to poor tolerance to frustration

Influence of course is underlined by: medical condition and environmental factors
Mild MR:
 If dx earlier, manifested by failure in academic learning tasks
 May be appropriate to train
 May be able to acquire good adaptive skills
 Diagnosis required bf age 18 months
 Etiology and associations with syndromes may help for early detection (i.e. Down
Syndrome)
 Mild MR of unknown origin is recognized later
More severe MR resulting from acquired cause will develop more abruptly (i.e.
encephalitis)

INTERVIEWING TECHNIQUES

SCREENING FOR DEVELOPMENTAL AND HEALTH CONDITIONS

Aim is to identify the existence and probabilities of an exhibiting delay or
abnormal development in the early stages (in children) or current stages (in
adults)

Such screening will detect biological problems (PKU-Fragil X syndrome, Sickle Cell
A. etc.)
