something you can actually see in the central nervous system
i.e. genetic, chromosomal cause
*** a known cause
IQ below 50
found across SES
accompanied by health problems 
physical abnormalities (i.e. cleft lip/ palate)
die earlier than general population

Q

Cause of ID: familial

A

IQ rarely below 50
more predominant in low SES
relate to IQ of siblings/parents
normal health
normal appearance
mortality rate similar to GP
with minimal support, lead independent lives
likely to marry and have low IQ children
more likely to experience neglect in homes

Q

Augmentative Alternative Communication (AAC)

A

area of of clinical practice that attempts to compensate (temporarily or permanently) for impairments or disabilities
For people with severe expressive communication disorders
E.g. speech generated devices for communication only
For people with severe expressive communication disorders
Mobile devices sign language
It can also be used for augmented input i.e receptive

-like how mom uses a sheet with pictures to tell her so that’s what she wanted them to do or where they are going

75

That it will stop the child from talking
AAC actually facilitates expressive communication

Q

AAC for children that are not illiterate or too young

Provide lots of opportunities for communications
Model the use of AAC
Wait and allow time for the child to communicate
Respond to the child’s attempts to communicate
Have fun

89
Q

Visual scene displays

A

being able to scan a picture into the AAC system and then the child can click on the parts of the photo for different responses

not aware/unsure of their social behaviors

96
Q

Autism Diagnosis

A

occurs frequently in families
can occur before, during, or after birth
ASD can be diagnosed by 18 months- trying to diagnose during 1st year
neurodevelopmental disorder

97
Q

prevalence of ASD

A

1 in 68

more predominant in males

98
Q

DSM 4- pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified (PDD-NOS)

A

children that met some of the criteria for ASD, but not all
delays in development and social communication
ruled out any type of psychiatric disorders

99
Q

infantile autism (DSM-4)

autism before 30 months of age

100
Q

Autistic disorder (DSM-4)

A

type of Autism that is most severe

101

progressive disorder
normal developmental until age 2
after 2, begin to lose abilities until age 10 (social, emotional, cognitive, motor)
Associated with severe intellectual disabilities, dementia
Normal life expectancy

102
Q

Retts syndrome

A

Progressive neurological disorder (not fit under autism spectrum)
Shares some symptoms that can present as autism
Pervasive developmental disorder
Everything appears intact for the first 5 months of life
Then you see deficits in social, motor, and cognitive abilities
Impaired language development
neurological problems: seizures
Sudden cardiac death
Many will survive into adulthood
Hand flapping

Imaginative play deficits
Difficulty with pretend play
Actions are repeated over and over again
-Speech and movements
Difficulty adapting to routine changes
Unusual reactions to taste, smell, sight, or sound
Sensory system deficits
Show aspects of normal development and then regress at one time

A

Unaware when people talk to them
Language abilities parallel with their IQ (cognitive abilities)

child will repeat what they heard at a later date and time

109
Q

ASD diagnosing

A

Challenging to administer a standardized test to this population
Parent-interview often used as means of assessment
SLPs so not diagnose ASD- group of professionals collaborate to make it

110
Q
