sociocontextual influences on intellectual disability in adulthood  

Définition(s)

  • Adults with mental retardation are a heterogeneous group of individuals with varying levels of intellectual and adaptive skill ability. Classification at each of four distinct diagnostic levels of mental retardation (mild, moderate, severe, profound; American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2000) is related to differences in the developmental course of individual abilities from birth through adulthood, with optimal achievement at each level influenced by the provision of needed environmental supports.
