Intellectual
Disability
❖Intellectual disability involves problems with
general mental abilities that affect functioning
in two areas:
1. Intellectual functioning (such as learning, problem
solving, judgement).
2. Adaptive functioning (activities of daily life such as
communication and independent living).
❖Intellectual disability affects about one percent
of the population, and of those about 85 percent
have mild intellectual disability.
 Physical Disability
• A physical disability is a limitation on a person's
physical functioning, mobility, dexterity or stamina.
• Other physical disabilities include impairments which
limit other facets of daily living, such as respiratory
disorders, blindness, epilepsy and sleep disorders.
• A physical disability does not necessarily stop you
from performing specific tasks but makes them
more challenging.
• This includes daily tasks taking longer to complete,
such as getting dressed or difficulty gripping and
carrying things.
 Causes of Disability
• Communicable diseases (Infectious diseases) such as lymphatic
filariasis, tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, and other sexually transmitted
diseases contribute to the cause.
• Non communicable diseases (NCDs)–
1. Chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, arthritis
and cancer cause the majority of long-term disabilities.
2. Lifestyle choices and personal behavior such as obesity, physical
inactivity, tobacco use, alcohol consumption, illicit drugs are also
becoming major contributing factors
3. Air pollution, occupational disease, poor water supply, sanitation,
and personal and domestic hygiene, malnutrition also contribute
for disability.
• Injuries due to road traffic accidents, occupational
injury, violence, conflicts, falls have long been
recognized as contributors to disability.
• Mental health problems– mental health retardation
and mental illness are the causes of mental disability.
• In more than 50% cases mental retardation has been
reported to be caused by serious illness or head
injury in the childhood and birth defects.
• Mental retardation was observed mostly at birth or
at very early ages of life while the problem of mental
illness is more of an old age problem.
 Disability Etiquettes
Disability etiquettes refers to respectful communication and
interaction with people who have disabilities.

The principles of disability etiquette are fairly simple, rely on

common sense to guide your interactions with people with
disabilities and behave in the same courteous and respectful
way.
1. Don’t ask questions about a person’s disability
unless it is brought up by the individual.
2. Don’t assume that they see their
disability as a tragedy.
3. Ask if he or she needs assistance before
providing it.
4. Do not underestimate the abilities of
someone with a disability.
5. Be cautious of using outdated, offensive
terms.
