OVERVIEW OF INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY:
ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT
Diagnostic Criteria–
As per 11th revision of International Classification of Disease (ICD-11)
As per Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5)
Conclusion
This report focuses on what is intellectual disability, its diagnostic criteria, etiological
factors, assessment tools and intervention and management approaches.
Intellectual disability is a condition that affects many aspects of a person’s life, but is
not the sum total of a person’s being. With proper assistance and guidance, early
assessment, caregiver support and a structured intervention and management plan,
people with intellectual disability can go on to live meaningful, happy and fulfilling
lives.
