Document Summary
Lecture note 24 psy 309: childhood disorder types. Excessive worry about harm/negative events to caregivers = persistent reluctance to go out. Distorted thinking (emphasize failures, minimize accomplishments: neurodevelopmental disorder types. Intellectual disability criteria: deficits in intellectual functioning (iq score 2 std. Deviations below mean) and adaptive functioning problems (academic, social, practical) Observation & behavior checklists to test adaptive functioning. Mild (fairly independent), moderate, severe, profound (custodial care required) Short, round face, flat nose, sides of eyes downward: fragile x syndrome. Recessive gene prevents metabolization of phenylaline ->builds up in brain and causes brain problems. Mild->moderate = mainstream into regular classrooms if possible. Appropriate educational, vocational, psychological, social and practical supports: autism spectrum disorder. Persistent difficulties in social communication & social interaction across multiple contexts. Restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interest, or activities. Can involve intellectual disability but doesn"t have to: autism spectrum deficits. Developing, maintaining, and understanding relationships: autism spectrum repetitive patterns, at least two:
