Intellectual Disability01:29

Intellectual Disability

408
Intellectual disability (ID) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by deficits in intellectual and adaptive functioning that manifest during the developmental period. This condition encompasses challenges in reasoning, memory, problem-solving, and learning, accompanied by impairments in everyday life skills, such as communication, self-care, and social interactions. Intellectual disability affects approximately 1% of the population in the United States, impacting an estimated 5...

Dissociative Identity Disorder01:30

Dissociative Identity Disorder

399
Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), previously termed multiple personality disorder, is a complex psychological condition characterized by the presence of two or more distinct identities or personality states. Each identity exhibits unique patterns of behavior, voice, and mannerisms and may possess separate memories and emotional responses. The alternating control between identities can result in memory gaps and challenges in recalling daily activities, often exacerbating the individual's...

Learning Disabilities01:25

Learning Disabilities

467
Learning disabilities are cognitive disorders caused by neurological impairments that affect cognitive functions like language and reading, without indicating overall intellectual or developmental challenges. These disabilities differ from global intellectual or developmental disabilities as they are limited to distinct cognitive functions. Common learning disabilities include dysgraphia, dyslexia, and dyscalculia, each of which impacts unique aspects of learning.

Multiple Intelligences Theory01:20

Multiple Intelligences Theory

8.6K
Howard Gardner's theory of Multiple Intelligence proposes that there are nine distinct types of intelligence, each reflecting different ways of interacting with the world. Introduced in 1983 and expanded in subsequent years, Gardner's framework challenges the traditional notion of a single, generalized intelligence.

Self-Discrepancy and Its Effects01:29

Self-Discrepancy and Its Effects

175
Self-discrepancy theory explains how people compare their actual self to their ideal and ought selves and how mismatches between these self-guides can lead to emotional distress. Developed by E. Tory Higgins, the theory distinguishes among three components of self-concept: the actual self, the ideal self, and the ought self. These refer respectively to how individuals perceive themselves, how they aspire to be, and how they believe they are obligated to be. Emotional well-being, self-esteem,...

Area of Science:

  • Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
  • Developmental Psychology
  • Neurodevelopmental Disorders

Background:

  • Children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental disorders frequently exhibit complex, multidimensional dysfunctions.
  • These children may share traits with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) but often remain diagnostically unclassified.
  • Clinical diversity and overlap necessitate refined categorization and assessment strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review existing classification proposals for children with complex neurodevelopmental disorders.
  • To introduce and advocate for a multidimensional assessment approach as a complementary diagnostic tool.
  • To emphasize a holistic, developmental, and environmentally interactive perspective for diagnosis and intervention.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of current classification proposals for neurodevelopmental disorders.
  • Description of a multidimensional assessment framework.
  • Emphasis on a developmental perspective and environmental interactions.

Main Results:

  • Existing classifications struggle with the diversity and overlap of symptoms in these children.
  • A multidimensional approach, alongside categorical diagnosis, offers a more comprehensive view.
  • This approach facilitates a functional diagnosis considering the child's environment.

Conclusions:

  • A multidimensional assessment is crucial for understanding children with complex neurodevelopmental disorders.
  • This holistic perspective supports the development of tailored therapeutic plans.
  • Improved functional diagnosis through multidimensional assessment can enhance school inclusion for these children.
