Three important genetic abnormalitlies that can cause an intellectual disibility include

- Fragile X syndrome. - phenylketonuria (PKU) - Down syndrome.

Within the DSM-5 group of neurodevelopmetal disorders,

- "specific learning disorder" replaced seperate disorders such as mathematical skills disorder. - "intellectual disability" replaced "mental retardation." - "autistic spectrum disorder" replaced "autistic disorder."

Learning disorders become evident when a student's academic achievement is substantially below what would be expected in light of the child's

- age. - education. - measured intelligence.

Barkley's ADHD assessment scale showed that in adults with ADHD, executive functioning ratings were related to the measures of deviant behavior, including

- antisocial acts. - traffic offenses committed while driving. - diversity of crimes.

From the opening case study illustrating the important considerations before diagnosing and medicating a child with ADHD like Jason Newman, we are able to understand that the disruptive behaviors have to

- cause significant problems in school. - cause significant problems in leading a normal childhood. - be addressed by considering combining treatment delivery to optimize the effects of medication and behavioral therapeutic approaches. - be treated with the parents collaborating with professionals to weigh the treatment options.

Children with intellectual disabilities can benefit from

- early diagnosis. - friendship training. - involvement in special education. - learning appropriate ways to handle their anger.

Children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) tend to

- have lower grades. -have discipline problems - be more likely to develop substance use disorders.

The DSM-5 reorganized disorders of childhood by labeling a large group of conditions with the term NEURODEVELOPMENTAL. Critics said

- putting ADHD into this category implies that ADHD should be treated biologically with medication. - this term attributes many disorders to a biological cause instead of multiple factors.

Adolescent boys diagnosed with ADHD tend to have higher rates of which of the following?

- reckless driving. - parental conflict. - substance abuse. - unprotected sex.

According to the Barkley's ADHD theory, the four areas of biological and behavioral functioning that are affected by ADHD include

- self-regulation of affect, motivation, and arousal. - internalization of self-directed speech. - reconstitution of behavior.

Disorders that were moved to entirely different categories in the DSM-5 included

- separation anxiety disorder. - pica and rumination disorders. - oppositional defiant disorder. - conduct disorder.

The theory that ADHD has biological underpinnings is bolstered by

- the high probability of inheriting the disorder. - molecular genetic studies. - the discovery of abnormal brain structures in people with ADHD.

Intellectual disability is most prevalent in

- urban slums or mixed urban-rural settings. - low-income countries.

The genetic link for ADHD has been well established; the chance of inheriting the disorder is as high as

76%

Although _______________________ was strictly seen as a childhood disorder related to forgetfulness, disorganization, and low self-esteem, we now see the potential for symptoms to progress into adulthood.

ADHD

The neurodevelopmental disorder involving a persistent pattern of inattention is known as which of the following?

Communication

(True or False): Approximately 20% of children have a diagnosed learning disorder.

False

Which of the following factors delayed Jason't ADHD diagnosis, according to the opening case study?

His parents' health insurance would not cover the psychological evaluation, and they could not afford it on their own.

Individuals who have intellectual and adaptive deficits that first become evident during childhood would be diagnosed with which of the following?

Intellectual disability

(True or False): Tay-Sachs disease has genetic links and is most common in Ashkenazi Jews.

True

(True or False): Teratogens include chemicals, infections, drugs, malnutrition, carbon monoxide, and toxic substances that can cause intellectual disability during fetal development.

True

(True or False): The biopsychosocial model includings parenting, sociocultural, psychological, and biological factors.

True

Six months after Ana moved to California, her bilingual parents received a letter from her first grade teacher suggesting that Ana should be placed into a program for children with intellectual developmental disorders due to her struggles with reading and writing. The teacher dismissed the fact that Ana was above grade level in math.

a culturally appropriate IQ test should be used.

The DSM-5 has changed the previous terminology of autistic disorder to __________________ ______________________ disorder to better differentiate the wide range of deficits in communication and social development.

autism spectrum

A comprehensive approach to developmental-related biological, psychological, and sociocultural influences is referred to as the _______________________ perspective.

biopsycholsocial

Phenylketonuria (PKU) can cause damage to the central nervous system, developmental delays, hyperactivity, and seizures, but it can be diagnosed shortly after birth with a simple ______________ test.

blood

Children with Down syndrome have an extra copy of _________________________________ 21.

chromosome

Developmental ___________________ disorder affects up to 6% of children, which cause impairments in movement, academic achievement, and ability to engage in daily living tasks.

coordination

The DSM-5 authors moved many childhood disorders to different categories because

doing so acknowledges the continuity of behavior from infancy through adulthood.

The main cognitive deficits observed in children with fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) relate to ________________ functions, such as mental manipulations, attention control, judgement, and impulse control.

executive

The condition formerly known as Asperger's disorder is now classified in the DSM-5 as

high-functioning autism spectrum disorder.

Previously, intellectual development disability was classified according to intelligence test scores. In contrast, the DSM-5 classifies levels of severity based on how well the individual can adapt

in conceptual, social, and practical domains.

The DSM-IV-TR used the term "mental retardation", but the DSM-5 uses ________________________ disability.

intellectual

People with autism spectrum disorder have difficulty processing facial stimuli, probably due to abnormal

neural circultry.

Clinicians use behavioral therapy approaches to help children with autism spectrum disorders develop new social skills to help them ultimately realize more successful ________________ - solving skills.

problem

Some individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders can also display extraordinary numerical or artistic skills, which can be further classified as autistic _________________________ syndrome.

savant

Mainstreaming children in general education classes in combination with __________________ education provides specialized assistance to help meet and treat the specific needs of individuals with intellectual developmental disabilities.

special

Dr. Warren is conducting a diagnostic family history interview and trying to determine if Johnny meets the criteria for a tic disorder or Tourette's disorder. Since Johnny's parents said that the behaviors were transient and not always present historically, it is more likely to be a(n) __________________ disorder since _______________ disorder is typically not a passing/transient condition.

tic; Tourette's

Adults with ADHD show difficulty with sustained attention, verbal fluency, and processing speed. The biologically and brain-based theory implicates _________________ memory as the area of the impairment.
