Intellectual Developmental Disorders (Intellectual Disabilities) are recognized through deficits in general mental abilities. These include reasoning, problem solving, planning, abstract thinking, judgement, academic learning, and learning from experience. These deficits can result in impairments of adaptive functioning, causing the individual to not meet standards of personal independence and social responsibility in one or more aspects of daily life. These aspects include communication, social participation, academic or occupational functioning, and personal independence at home or within the community.
