Defining mental retardation as a self-regulatory disorder offers educational insights. This perspective highlights language development

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Education

Background:

  • Self-regulation is crucial for cognitive and behavioral development.
  • Understanding self-regulation is key to addressing developmental disorders.
  • Existing conceptualizations of self-regulation offer complementary insights.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the implications of defining mental retardation as a self-regulatory disorder.
  • To examine behavioral, social-learning, and cognitive perspectives on self-regulation.
  • To integrate these perspectives to understand self-regulatory development.

Main Methods:

  • Review and synthesis of existing literature on self-regulation.
  • Analysis of behavioral, social-learning, and cognitive theories.
  • Examination of the role of language, environment, and motivation.

Main Results:

  • Self-regulation is a complex, developable skill, teachable through behavioral techniques.
  • Linguistic guidance is fundamental to self-regulation development.
  • Language deficiencies in individuals with mental retardation contribute to delayed self-regulatory control.

Conclusions:

  • Viewing mental retardation as a self-regulatory disorder has significant educational and research implications.
  • Interventions should focus on teaching self-regulatory skills, considering language, environment, and motivation.
  • Further research is needed to isolate self-regulatory components and supportive environments.
