Intellectual Disability: Diagnostic Criteria PG 37 PDF 133

Intellectual developmental disorder (intellectual disability) is a disorder with onset
during the developmental period that includes both intellectual and adaptive
functioning deficits in conceptual, social, and practical domains. The following three
criteria must be met:

A. Deficits in intellectual functions, such as reasoning, problem solving,
planning, abstract thinking, judgment, academic learning, and learning from
experience, confirmed by both clinical assessment and individualized,
standardized intelligence testing.

B. Deficits in adaptive functioning that result in failure to meet developmental and
sociocultural standards for personal independence and social responsibility.
Without ongoing support, the adaptive deficits limit functioning in one or more
activities of daily life, such as communication, social participation, and
independent living, across multiple environments, such as home, school, work,
and community.

C. Onset of intellectual and adaptive deficits during the developmental period.

Note: The term intellectual developmental disorder is used to clarify its relationship with the
WHO ICD-11 classification system, which uses the term Disorders of Intellectual
Development. The equivalent term intellectual disability is placed in parentheses for
continued use. The medical and research literature use both terms, while intellectual
disability is the term in common use by educational and other professions, advocacy
groups, and the lay public. In the United States, Public Law 111-256 (Rosa’s Law)
changed all references to “mental retardation” in federal laws to “intellectual
disability.”
