  • Summary

    Intellectual disability (ID) is a construct that involves the intersection between social and biological factors. In this chapter, we examine the current ID definitions and classification systems and their evolution. We then discuss issues related to ID comorbidities and current best practices in ID assessment. We conclude with a discussion regarding issues in ID science and practice that are on the horizon, and that will prompt the next set of changes in the evolution of this dynamic construct.
