Diagnosis information
Core diagnostic criteria, specifiers, differential considerations, and documentation support in one open, scan-friendly view.
All criteria are shown. No expand controls or hidden sections.
Core criterion A
Deficits in intellectual functions (reasoning, problem-solving, planning, abstract thinking, judgement, academic learning, experiential learning) confirmed by clinical assessment and standardised testing
Core criterion B
Deficits in adaptive functioning in ≥1 of: conceptual, social, or practical domains — resulting in failure to meet developmental/sociocultural standards for personal independence/social responsibility
Core criterion C
Onset of intellectual and adaptive deficits during the developmental period
Consistent with [Intellectual Disability] [specifier(s)]. Since the early developmental period, there have been deficits in reasoning; problem-solving; planning; abstract thinking; judgement; academic learning; experiential learning, together with deficits in adaptive functioning across conceptual; social; and practical domains, forming a pattern that limits independence and requires support in daily activities. The presentation is further characterised by stable, cross-situational functional impairments persisting across home, educational, occupational, and community settings, consistent with a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition. These symptoms have resulted in clinically significant limitations in adaptive functioning, and the cognitive and functional pattern is not better explained by neurodegenerative disorders, sensory impairment, severe psychiatric illness, or the effects of trauma, deprivation, or substances.
