The application of skills to new and appropriate situations is reinforced as naturally as possible as such situations occur (Kalyva & Avramidis, 2005; Whitaker et al., 1998). Understanding the communicative intention of challenging behaviors serves as the basis for replacing problem behaviors with more appropriate communication skills, including AAC, that would serve the same functions (see the Functional Communication Training (FCT) subsection in the Treatment section). (2013). A., Eklund, S. J., James, D. R., & Foose, A. K. (2003). As indicated in the ASHA Code of Ethics (ASHA, 2016a), SLPs who serve individuals with ID should be specifically educated and appropriately trained to do so.

The SLP helps maximize independent functioning in aging adults with ID. See ASHAs resource on family-centered practice for general guidelines. Take one activity at a time. ID is distinguished from LD, in that LD specifically refers to difficulty in at least one area of learning, such as reading, writing, and mathematics, with typical intellectual functioning. SLPs ensure that symbols used with individuals who require AAC reflect the cultural and linguistic identity of the individual and are in line with the individuals preference. These differing aspects of personal and social identity and how they converge are known as intersectionality. Examples of such considerations follow: Persons with ID and their families are integral to assessment, goal selection, and treatment. (2021). Replacing challenging behaviors with appropriate and increasingly sophisticated communication skills has the potential to improve academic achievement, social relationships, and vocational outcomes. American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 20(3), 180199. Rates of co-occurring disorders in male and female adults with ID were similar, with 19% and 20%, respectively (Mazza et al., 2020).

Interprofessional collaborative practice consists of core ideals described by the WHO that include patient- and family-centered, community-oriented, and relationship-focused service delivery by a team of professionals working together with common goals for the individual with ID (WHO, 2010b). As children with ID may have slowed receptive language processing compared to typically developing peers, they may benefit from an increase in frequency and intensity of examples (Ellis Weismer et al., 2017). Journal of Communication Disorders, 38(4), 279302. For example, some study authors use the terms intellectual disability and developmental disability interchangeably, the latter of which can include conditions like ASD and developmental language disorder.

In addition to determining the type of speech and language treatment that is optimal for individuals with ID, SLPs consider other service delivery variablesincluding format, provider, timing, and settingthat may affect treatment outcomes.

Persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction across multiple contexts (e.g., joint attention, social-emotional reciprocity, nonverbal and verbal communication skills, initiation of conversation; APA, 2013).
