American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 20(3), 180199. This definition of ID balances limitations with an equal emphasis on skills. Providing effective interventions for individuals with severe intellectual disabilities (ID) continues to challenge educators, speech-language pathologists, and other allied health professionals. Make sure your goals are SMART. Intervention is customized based on the individuals needs, interests, and family situation. Intellectual disability can be caused by a problem that starts any time before a child turns 18 years old - even before birth. https://doi.org/10.1044/lle13.3.21, Guralnick, M. J.

Language Arts-Reading: (Student's name) will read a 3rd grade passage and be able to comprehend its contents and decode 10 of the words contained therein with 70% accuracy within the next 29 weeks. Multiple communication partners besides the SLP may also be involved in service delivery across settings. Augmentative communication and early intervention: Myths and realities. Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 56(1), 295309. 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). Effective early intervention: The developmental systems approach. Fetal alcohol syndrome is the largest environmental cause of ID. Intellectual disability: Definition, diagnosis, classification, and system of supports (12th ed.). 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. (2014). Additionally, LD is not characterized by intellectual limitations. The condition begins in the developmental period. Teaching a child with autism and severe language delays to reject: Direct and indirect effects of functional communication training. Wiley. (2009). The treatment modes/modalities described above (e.g., AAC) may be used to implement these treatment options. Problem behaviors can be eliminated through extinction, the gradual weakening of a conditioned response (i.e., withholding reinforcers). A model of phonological processing, language, and reading for students with mild intellectual disability. More contextually based models of service delivery that occur in everyday contexts are consistent with the natural environments philosophy and the move toward inclusive educational programming (Paul-Brown & Caperton, 2001). Interprofessional collaboration may also improve communication skills. These methods are based on behavioral/operant principles of learning; they involve examining the antecedents that elicit a certain behavior, along with the consequences that follow that behavior, and then making adjustments in this chain to increase desired behaviors and/or decrease inappropriate ones. Functional assessment and positive behavior support at home with families: Designing effective and contextually appropriate behavior support plans. As indicated in the ASHA Code of Ethics (ASHA, 2016a), SLPs who serve individuals with ID should be specifically educated and appropriately trained to do so. Growth in early reading skills is influenced by environmental as well as genetic factors (Petrill et al., 2010). Yoder, P. J., & Warren, S. F. (2002). Battaglia, A., & Carey, J. C. (2003). The clinician can prompt with a question (e.g., What do you want?) or model a request (e.g., Say I need paint). Prior studies have highlighted over- and underrepresentation of ID and/or learning disability (LD) identification across race and ethnicity (e.g., Shifrer, 2018; Shifrer et al., 2011). Aging in adults with intellectual disabilities. Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 75(4), 594604. Several Hanen Centre programs and guidebooks have been developed with research-based training for parents/caregivers of. The effect of instructional use of an iPad on challenging behavior and academic engagement for two students with autism. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40474-016-0085-7. (2010b). Limitations in adaptive functioning in specific skill areas are a necessary criterion for diagnosis under the AAIDD and DSM-5 definitions. More severe disabilities are more likely to result in early identification of ID (Daily et al., 2000). Some prenatal causes such as environmental influences (e.g., exposure to lead-based paint) may be preventable. 241268). This training may include the use of communication intervention strategies, partner training in AAC, and/or assistive technology. 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. It's all about getting to know your student, their future goals, and collaborating with parents/caregivers on what areas they find important.

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).

In our work, these are often skills or behaviors that can help adults with developmental disabilities better integrate into their community, live independently, or secure employment. Questions pertaining to gender and pronoun use must be relevant to that individual and their familial structures.

Phonological accuracy and intelligibility in connected speech of boys with Fragile X syndrome or Down syndrome. For example, video-based instruction is a form of intervention that uses technology and can be used in peer-mediated interventions to address social skills and other target behaviors. SLPs should consider the role of ABA in communication intervention, particularly because difficulty with prompt dependency and generalization of communication interactions may result. Other characteristics include the following: Fetal alcohol syndrome is a congenital syndrome resulting from alcohol exposure in utero. The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 51(6), 660667. Cultural beliefs may influence some individuals perceptions about the causes of ID (Allison & Strydom, 2009; Scior, 2011). The Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 52(7), 741752.

Peer-mediated/implemented treatment approaches incorporate peers as communication partners for children with disabilities to minimize isolation, provide effective role models, and boost communication competence. Quality of life and quality of support for people with severe intellectual disability and complex needs. Celia Hooper, ASHA vice president for professional practices in speech-language pathology (20032005), served as the Board liaison. Identifying and treating behaviors early in development may promote appropriate communication using alternative modes and prevent negative long-term consequences. R.
